THE PROVERBIAL POEM IN A MODIFIED MOULD

THE PROVERBIAL POEM IN A MODIFIED MOULD

All that glitters is not gold.

Donning saffron after having been sold

Makes a mockery as has been told

In tales of the day and in tales of old.

Lies that are rife and lies that have rolled

Through doctrinaire cult as bad as they are bold,

And tending to bring all to their fold,

They must be halted, they must be on hold.

Now be not coaxed, thou be not cajoled 

To wear the noxious noose on the satanic scaffold.

Composed by Sugata Bose
