The Grey Lights# 47
☆ – “Lifetime”– ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay ☆
☆
This is a game of fear
in this eternal jungle,
yesterday was a tiger
today is a jackal
everybody is everybody’s prey
and predator in some way,
order is that hopeless ray
calling freedom a dark way
here achievements do die
and defeats do live,
from crushed sands of hope
idols become alive
the only shining thing
in this dull sight,
is the feel called love
whether it’s dark or white
time is a lifeless scale
whose markings are scar,
love is a timeless life
where truly alive we are
drink the nectar of love
and be drunken on
‘Life’
their mouths will cease
for they are drunken on
‘Time’
