SWEET TALK

Sweeet Talk; in frame: Sintha and me

We do admit that we are completely

tiny creatures in a big big world, don't we?

That this huge man-made craft we sit on

is just a little bigger than us

and a lot smaller than the cosmos;

That we are only two of millions people

willing to have some struggle

trying to survive in this urban jungle;

That we are just vacillating dust

unseen unknown unnoticed dirt in the air

somehow polluting in toto the atmosphere;

That, yes, we belong to those living things

who suck all creature-comforts dry

exhausting the old Earth in agonised cry;

That it's only by the Almighty's mercy

we can still relish this kinda joviality

of tasting nature's charm and beauty

before we are inevitably parted by mortality.

So, convince me, dearie!

We both undeniably agree, don't we?!
