The Dove’s Mockery

I fly and gaze with a sigh As someone stops peace scheme the world has to try Because it gets heated when I wish it wouldn’t Because men do what they often shouldn’t Because agreements fail, and pursuits go wrong Conspiracies and Cold War all year along.
By Sushan Gautam

I fly and gaze with a sigh

As someone stops peace scheme the world has to try

Because it gets heated when I wish it wouldn’t

Because men do what they often shouldn’t

Because agreements fail, and pursuits go wrong

Conspiracies and Cold War all year along.


I soar but the world has me down

And it’s keeping me there

I don’t get a chance, Oh the world is unfair!

Because men lose when only one hopes to gain

Because the invisible walls bring pain and again

Because bombs explode where they liked to play

Terrorism and coercive diplomacy in harmony’s way.

I flutter yet I want to hear

The deepest that is said

That many a time the hungry slept on no bed

Because dreadful atrocities forever smile

Because emission limits trudge the mark awhile

Because global warming is choking ‘em for too long

The exploding populations whimper the world’s all wrong.


I could have you a dozen, yes,

A Hundred I guess

Of things that dragged my symbol from success

But somehow troubles don’t trouble many who bear

Somehow contributing less and expecting more seems fair

Somehow the grumbling who stand about

Want this dove’s mockery to casually pass out.
