NEED OF BEING GREAT

Roman Polanski,

ace- film director

Oscar winner

one day

‘hammered’ girl

aged 13

the chap still being

celebrated the world over

Thus report media.

World-class actresses

change male-robes

World-class male actors

change female-robes

a dime a dozen per day

all glittering stars in the

tinsel world,

just to taste the difference

all

liked, loved, even worshipped

across the world.

Thus report media.

Silvio Berlusconi

billionaire, media baron

Prime Minister of a nation,

notorious for being a womanizer

still continues his hobby

Thus report the media.  

Than Shwe,

Myanmar dictator,

military junta head -

red carpets being unfolded

before him by,

nations far and wide

while a lady freedom fighter

languishes in solitary confinement

since a long time

Thus report the media.

Jacob Zuma,

President,

South Africa,

Dark, plump, sturdy, baldie, in specs,

In suits and ties,

one day

made it with a female

AIDS - wholesale dealer

unprotected act it was

no precautions he took

whatsoever

throwing all restrictions into the air

Thus report the media.

acclaimed they all

celebrated they all,

worshipped they all,

World-wide.

Heads of world nations

vie with each other,

in the race of befriending,

worshipping

the gentlemen

Thus report the media.

An ordinary man

When found with

An ordinary woman,

in a compromising position 

the story alters,

moral police appear

on the scene

and

both find themselves

behind bars

hated, spat-upon and crucified.

Thus say the media.

A woman with an empty stomach

if found waiting for

a ‘client’

standing at a street side

here also the story alters

finds herself in

‘wretched’ category list.

It is high time

all tried to be great

money wise

power wise,

fame wise 

get lost, if not
