ALLUSION OF MATERIALISM…
(Allusion Series-5)
Ephemeral possessions of wealthy people,
Has now become empty of valued materials,
Like missing content in prominent works,
Saliently interested in price.
Uninterested in social value,
Which fails to bring
The pain of conquest, while everything is given
And everything remains unappreciated…
You are worth of what you have
And not worth for what you are,
Instilled materialism as given,
Values thrown all over the ground
Without shame or emotion,
So are the creations, of existing and future generations
With rare exceptions,
But mostly,
It is the most common heritage…
Appreciated for materialism,
Even better if it is not conquered,
What do the said values matter?
for those who only hold grudges
For non-inherited goods, because to say
From what I can see,
No declared value remains in the soul
In inheritances of the facilitated world
There is a lack of allusions of Materialism…।।
