LIFE OVERRULES DEATH
by Nikhil Parekh

Life Overrules death..Light overrules
pathetic darkness, Happiness overrules morbid
sadness, Greenery overrules blistering sands,
Optimism overrules lackadaisical diffidence,
Conviction overrules decaying weakness,
Radiance overrules overwhelming gloom,
Boisterousness overrules stingy silence,
Fragrance overrules dilapidated stench, Charisma
overrules stagnated boredom, Smile overrules
ostentatious tears, Goodness overrules
diabolically evil, Pioneers overrule manipulatively
mundane, Literacy overrules bohemian thumb,
Water overrules spurious whisky, Freshness
overrules deliberate dwindling, Enigma overrules
monotonous lifestyles, Passion overrules
opprobrious nonchalance, Flames overrule soggy
matchsticks, Adventure overrules abhorrent
suicide, Peace overrules satanic hatred,
Mysticism overrules chauvinistic ego’s, Tranquility
overrules scorching summers, Freedom overrules
incarcerated slavery, Art overrules baseless
commercialism, Wings overrule tyrannically
dictatorial, Immaculate overrule hideously
tarnished, Beauty overrules uncouth ugliness,
Nostalgia overrules snobbish bossism, Truth
overrules blatant lies, Belief overrules
sanctimonious superstitions, Exuberance
overrules despicable withering, Melody overrules
disgruntling cacophony, Unity overrules
treacherous bloodshed, Compassion overrules
horrendous indifference, Perseverance overrules
malicious trickery, Childhood overrules mature
melancholy, Dance overrules lackluster sleep,
Courage overrules devastating depression, Wind
overrules claustrophobic fanaticism, Angels
overrule bloodsucking beasts, And life overrules
ghastly death…
