Gate of Toll


Morning stroll on shore, beside,

And on either side none reside;

Walked in linear back & forth,

In moments came gate of toll.

 

Gate paved way for modern times,

Not one or two, inhibited all sides;

Ain’t there waves nor any stream,

Nor ocean currents that set to thrive.

 

Line got strong & stronger behind,

Pitches of shriek what shattered ears;

You seize it once or lose for life,

Ain’t smiles nor in all eyes were tears.

 

There’s a choice to break the code,

Flow with stream or amidst in scream;

Two sides exist but one’s putrid,

Who’s going down, know, who’s supreme. :)
