385. Tears play a game with cries,

SONNET 385

By JH Sayyar
Tears play a game with cries,
Come and go like stars in sky,
Wisdom laughs at fall and rise,
Desires and dreams make no cry,
Dreams like bats flying over head,
Desires crush; selfishness greets
I among the crowd wearing shred
Unseen by the eyes full of  cheats,
Wishes float like germs in milk,
Drinking it ignoring all contacts,
Selfishness burns hearts like silk,
Wisdom fails, soul flies with acts

When images wear a dress of line!
Soul, mind and words together dine
