Diatribe ' PETALS OF WEEP '
Oh, life has raped me,
life has raped me again,
I thought I have made it,
I thought I have reached my sky.
Maria and Jude, were all over me,
the grooving were lit n' fun.
What about the clubbing...?
What about my ladies...?
What about that casino?
Oh, life!
I never, would choose this path'
this path, of cruel cries n' crimes'.
Crimes... I know not about,
they all tag me now, - a tout,
I helped them all, in their needs!
They've forsaken me,
in a twinkle of an eye,
no one seems to know my name;
life, have you no mercy in you?
You chose to rape me this way,
plans of changing my state
has changed my soul entirely!
I could see Jezebel n' Portiphar,
bathing me with pretty dark soaps,
from the kingdom I know not'
What have I done?
What's life doing to me?
What's the way out of all... these?
Leaving town is hell to me,
staying is devil's hug to me,
no! Life.... No!
My helpless estate is grinding me,
I'm belching like Sodom monsters,
my biceps are in agony too,
I'm becoming a beast bit by bit,
I'm becoming... Egypt in my family,
Jabez is better name to my name,
I won't live to see Moses for remedy
but to die is the new life;
either abyss or paradise, death is rich.

The poet personae of this piece laments how the wickedness of man has left him helpless and unable to think straight other than the wish for death as a new home.
