Like a kingfisher dives down to a pond
from nowhere
and carries its victim
between its beaks
and makes a vanishing
appearance with lightening speed,
like a mentally deranged
youth on a sudden impulse
loses his senses and
guns down innocent kids,
like a dictator shoots
down his innocent subjects cold-bloodedly
with no qualms whatsoever,
like an airplane
nosedives into a sea or an ocean
killing hundreds of passengers
on board instantly,
death snuffs out human lives each day
irrespective of young or old in split-seconds.
How ephemeral is human existence on earth?
