THE OLD BEGGAR
I'm not who you met yesterday.
I'm not who you fooled every twilight.
Carrying your lantern,
In search of the weak-hearted.

Seeking alms –
From people who have no arms.
What's your mission?
Pursuing your selfish vision.

Each day, you walk around in streets,
Towns and citied not excluded.
You search for places that are secluded,
To perform your evil activities.

Why deceive?
Leading those who have gone astray –
Into the land of doom.
Locking their rooms.

They are unable to move.
Rooms without roofs.
The rain of destruction –
Falls heavily on them.

Old beggar!
Each time I wonder,
Your wickedness knows no bound.
But one day, you will be put asunder.
