18) Guilt

18) Guilt
Move afar, can’t you smell,
The wolf that sniffs,
It’s sharp nails,
Will tear your body.

Keep silence, can’t you see
The bear that wakes,
It’s huge hands,
Will crush your body.

Don’t touch, can’t you feel
The snake that crawls,
It’s poisonous lips,
Will burn your body.

Run away, can’t you hear
The hoof beats of ram,
It’s upturned horns,
Will bruise your body.

Stay away, can’t you imagine,
The conditioned mind,
It’s guilty thoughts,
Will scar your memory, for life.

1> Guilt
This evokes various interpretations & I had used lots of metaphor’s and even psychoanalytical components while expressing. I am still undecided as whether to reveal my theme when I started writing this note, because it can be quite shocking to many. If you don’t want to be shocked, then don’t read ahead. Its on dealing with temptation and based on Victorian morals of sexuality as sin. Why would a male caution in such a way made it more interesting, in a way…
