Enough Poem by Abnish Singh Chauhan

Many times
his inner self becomes vocal,
chastising him,
‘This is enough'—

Talking during meals,
daydreaming while working,
or spending hours
on social media platforms.

Gossiping in the canteen,
enthralled by rumours,
spreading them like seeds,
or passing comments on others.

Doing nothing with care,
shying from responsibilities,
angered by the smallest things,
or fighting over trifles.

But, how to change all this,
he does not know,
nor does he seek to understand.
Is he a slave to his habits
or something deeper still?
