The Dharma I know
not he the brother of Arjuna
of the epic Mahabaratha
a man of unreasonable pride
takes us on a joy ride
speaks of his wealth and pedigree
though they vary in degree
goes on a pilgrimage often
wife also in the run
his children left alone in a way
gone wayward in a day
the eldest lives in the world of drugs
makes the others to shrug
the second girl has gone astray
now become sober they say
the youngest is a son
is almost half done
a mixture of both the siblings
beats his wife into the ring
the mother joins him in the fare
the wife unable to bear
walks away from home in disgust
Dharma now is under arrest
that be the end of the story
sounds it not a little hoary
yet it is most recent
from people not decent
