Obsequious People

Obsequious People

(Prof. R.P. Garg)

Since my dizzying leap
To the highest rung
Crowds of obsequious people
Around me I have seen.
With a lump in their throats
And mist in their eyes
In tremulous voice
Showering praises upon me
Warbling paeans in my honour
Calling me an epitome of this and that.
No more shall I find people
Who in no uncertain terms
Let me know of my shady spots
My dark recesses
And yet laugh away my vanities
Hoping against hope
That I shall improve.
On public platforms
People pay their rich tributes
To my gifts of head and heart
But none cares to know
Whether I slept last night.
With rapt attention and obedience
People listen to what I say
But none feels pang in his heart
For what I leave unsaid.
They interpret and obey my words
But who will see the things
That mv words camouflage ?
