The Power of Poppy - 45

Rajendra Kshetri *



Never ever underestimate
The Power of Poppy
Poppy turns man upside down
There is no such thing as civility

There is no such thing as loyalty
There is no such thing as integrity
In the dictionary of Poppy.





* Poem written by Rajendra Kshetri for The Sangai Express
