Allegory

There lies a 'no' beneath every 'yes' ;
There lies a mask on every face ;
Every truth brings about a hundred lies ,
Like fissures above in the cloudy skies .
The disarray of impressions always stays ,
And very noiselessly your morale sways ;
Like the boats careen without fear ,
And the boatman's child learns to steer .
Veils make every answer obscure .
Hope fights a disease without a cure .
While the whole world burns in agony ,
Rules are bent by power and money .
As the artist picks up his brush ;
As the young boy cries for his crush ;
As the astronauts count the stars ;
As the heroes fight their wars ;
The shackles ask you to be free ,
And a pen starts singing poetry ;
But there comes a question with every story -
'Isn't life the most beautiful allegory?'
