On Retribution…

I've always believed what goes around, comes around. You do good and good will come back. You do bad, that will surely come back. You do nothing; you’re dead weight on this planet. However, thinking about retribution all of a sudden, I penned down the verses below. These things happen when I go into these sudden episodes of words flowing into my brain. Some people call it inspiration, some people a muse, I call it both.

So, here is my poem on the age-old phrase, ‘Karma is a bitch.’

Karma is a Bitch

Coming back to haunt your dreams,

Your every moment;

Karma is a bitch, they say.

Just because I can’t, she will.

She’s coming for you,

Karma is a bitch they say.

She has been lying in wait,

A stalker she is;

Karma is a bitch they say.

No matter how, when, where, why.

She will strike, I’m sure;

Karma is a bitch they say.

When you did me wrong, she saw,

She smiled and waited;

Karma is a bitch they say.

And now that you are exposed,

She sharpens her scythe;

Karma is a bitch they say.

You cower and weep and beg,

She still smiles and swings;

Karma is a bitch they say.
