Choice

Prosperity without peace

Midas golden touch, ill at ease

Education without awareness and bliss

Plastic flowers, a decoration piece

Growth without empowerment

Bonsai trees, slaves of predicament

Winning without compassion

Deforestation in action

Money machine markets

Still born triplets

Technologies without care

Butterfingers playing overture

Power without thoughts to cure

Continues to be more insecure

Knowledge without sense

Blocks enlightenment, affluence

These are micro-poems, two-liners or couplets, each holding a thought that readers can interpret in their own ways. The one objective of these poems is to make the readers think. The position of these poems is at the bottom, the poems are lying on the grasses and the readers are placed on a higher platform so they have a bird's eye view. There are eight poems here which can be read in isolation, however, it is also possible to find a link with each of these; as though they (the eight short poems) are sub-sets to the super-set, Choice.
