Interesting how

all scriptures,

all politicians,

all platitudes,

tell us

to endure the pain

they dish out.


That the relief would follow!


Enjoy the pain

it's for the good

of your soul,

of your family,

of your people,

of your nation,

of your future.


Good Times will follow.


All this we swallow.

In it willingly wallow.

Waiting

for the morrow.

Waiting.

Waiting.

Waiting...


For Achhe Din.
