As the whole world holds its breath
As the threat of annihilation looms large
As brave people brace themselves
For the final showdown with death itself
Bunch of men proclaim
“Ceasefire!!!”
Such an easy convenient word
Why did it take so long?
One just has to cease
And step back
No one needs to call off the war
This game is paused for the next level
After all it increases views, stocks and profits
And weapons industry sells quite well
The biggest reality show of current times
Boom!! Just after ceasefire
There was much fire elsewhere
While the negotiations were still being read
There has to be a twist in the war drama
Well, the whole bloody drama is twisted!!
No one knows who is winning or losing
I guess it doesn’t matter anymore
Let the game go on…
While the desolate moon, sun
And a bunch of astronauts
Behold the beautiful Earth
Blue and white…pristine marble
Moving in the dark empty space
Silently miles miles away
Human life does seem a miracle
Till it turns itself into a curse!!
