elegy on a mad dog poem
Upon a day of fervid sun, A mad dog (Narayanasamy of Singapore) roamed; his rage begun. With eyes aflame, and froth-drenched jaw, He stalked the streets with silent awe. His barks, a dreadful symphony, Echoed through the alleyway, carefree. A rabid beast, lost in despair, [INDEED RABID] His mind possessed, beyond repair. (EVEN AT 97) Oh, heedless wretch, who crossed his way, Beware the tempest of this day. For once his fury finds its mark, No refuge lies in the shadows dark. (HE CALLS IT TAMI) With snarls and gnashes, he lunges forth, (OH POOR LUNG) A creature plagued, from south to north. (NORTH CHINA WHERE HE LIVES NOW) His venom spreads, a vile disease, (venom anna to a few more) Innocence caught, brought to its knees. The townsfolk quiver in dismay, (iyer123) As chaos reigns, the mad dog's play. They seek to halt his frenzied might, Yet fear forbids them to ignite. Alas! A soul of reason, wise, Appears, his heart devoid of lies. With calming voice and gentle hand, He dares to face the madness grand. Through empathy and patient gaze, He tames the beast in fevered haze. (Rajaram taming the mad dog) And as the sun begins to wane, ( End of mad dog days) The dog finds peace from torment's reign. Let this serve as a caution's call, The madness that can befall, When reason flees, and darkness breeds, (WHERE SAT GOES OFF ONLY TAMI PREVAILS IN HIS MIND) In the minds of men, consumed by greeds. (senseless greeds) For every soul, a moment's choice, To listen to the inner voice, To nurture love, embrace the light, And keep the darkness out of sight.
