It is families who lived together
uncles, aunts, grandparents,
all under a roof
partaking food together
participating in discussions,
confronting each other
all seemed possible
few decades ago,
These years two individuals
in apartments big or small
express anger scream, shout,
hurl, throw things, release
scorn, condemn one another
conversation ceases,
the kitchen turns empty.
separation is initiated.
Wondering at such episodes
I deliberate. I may sound
archaic,I look at the sun
shining so beautifully, the clouds
moving in rows, the sky seems pleasing
the ocean flows with subdued roar
the mountains majestically bow over
They profess no change whatsoever,
Time changes man alone.
Could be because of __-?
Really, I do not know.
