Saw a bundle of contradictions down the lane,
Men and women crossing the road in a bane,
Marking their priorities in a plane,
Deviating from the set principles in a Wayne,
It is but a convenient turn from the approved terrain.
Money lays the first bait in the frame,
Beauty follows with an ambush in the claim,
Power overtakes the conspiracy in a tame,
Fame hastens to hold the top in the name,
Strength yields to all these in a shame.
Hitting directly on the vulnerable spot,
Achilles heels was the credible dot,
Midas’s greed was the invincible lot,
Hamlets’ indecisiveness was the indefatigable slot,
Infirmity drove a meek submission to the plot.
Frailty !thy name is woman calls the bard,
Men also express weakness in a way hard,
Lust entices all like a magnetic band ,
Power corrupts all to a shameful stand,
Frailty wins over all to a freaky fraud.
