At The Threshold Of The Void
Desolation in human life; absence of morality,
Uncertainty in decision; waywardness to principles,
Selfishness in sharing; falsity in expressions,
Greediness in riches; gluttony in eating,
Lethargy in effots; covetousness in fellow-beings' wealth,
Restlessness in thinking; negligence in caring,
Corruption in politics; cruelty in treatment,
Negativity in thinking; crookedness in deeds,
Oblivion in gratitude; density in self-centredness,
Vanity is life-style; impropriety in attitude,
Racism in peoples; Casteism in communities,
Communism in exploitation; democracy in dictatorship,
Fanaticism in secularism; slavery in innocence;
Fall of economy; insecurity of human existence,
Starvation of the poor; luxuries of the rich;
Knowledge of Science; expenses in arms,
Bossism in power; nepotism in judgment,
Tomfoolery in religious mission; idolatory in worship,
Envy in fellow-beings' prosperity; sadism in brethren's distress,
Rivalry among fellow-beings; denial of individuality,
And so the world is at the threshold of the void.
