When Contrived Felicitations Killed Art & Literature!

 

The left liberals’ felicitations of historians, activists,

Right was not behind, only moved a step, ahead!

In name of who can write best with their approvals,

Impermanence life was of modern arts & literature!

Comedians’ cackle but can’t tickle the funny bones,

Politicians, Business leaders stuck in a cyclic loop!

Wonder what if the ancient inscriptions ne’er written,

Nothing except in the void, one would’ve smitten!

If in case modern is no match to any ancient times,

You want to be immortals, YET, can’t explain time!

When contrived felicitations were so skilled to kill,

What you call timeless, now live for less, & brittle!
