LOWER FOOD PRICE

Lower food price
High cost of living
We are hardly surviving
Only cheap oxygen for breathing
Only the rich making a killing
And the politician just smiling
Day by day tax hiking
High price of the rice
in this pandemic crisis
High food prices
From day and night
Unable to make both ends meet
Empty stomach walking in the street
like we have no right
yet we have been quite
for government to fix it
all they say is to unite

Single meal a day
That's real poverty
Eating our society
we struggle to gamble
but nothing we assemble
hustlers are still humble
we need food as basic need
we have families to feed
Lower food price
Lower food price
lower food price
lower food price

JUVENILE MOLESTER
They enforce innocence
But in real sense
There's absence of patience
Only intolerance commence
in above their common sense
reflect invisible outlooked lense
Judging by the physical appearance
one would call them saints
they harm like ants under pants
pretty but hearts hard as nuts
Have gentle smile but hostile
they take over from bandits
break necks like sugarcane
words sweeter than sugar
They match like chicken
mistaken with a glance of friendliness
until they lead you to the darkness
like a ram to the slaughter
They defile someone's daughter
They end with a laughter
Sixty seconds of lifetime scar
They walk among us
and live among us
Have big bodies with zero brains
They are people to substitute with dogs
who plug beautiful flowers and leaves them to wither.
sucking nectar prematurely
Dismantle the hope of innocent soul
craving for pleasure to destroy treasure
causing wounds that never heal
Physical comma and mental trauma
Feelings of self-hate and social stigma

what's love
is when you are blinded by someone
that you can't look another side
when they're soul healer
your stress reliever
they are your only choice
their opinions are yours
deserve your attention
free you from tension

what's love
is it the source of joy
that gives you peace mind
that reminds your worthiness
that brings you gladness
that keeps you strong
that lift you when down
that companion greater than company
that you treasure than money

what's love
Is it that brings you together
makes you cherish
that reminds you of someone
that you feel you care
someone's dreams becomes yours
their pain becomes yours too
when they're next to you
they are significant in your world
when they hold you
they bring down heaven to you

We've flattened the curve;
With reasoned resolve.
We've feasted on the fattened calf
Coz it's our time to serve

We've flattened the curve
After bagging the treasure trove:
The received help from "above"
See us spread the love!

We've flattened the curve;
We've farted as you starve-
But we all rode the wave-
See we are out of the cave;
After flattening the curve!
