Forefront Poem by Hans Raj Sharma

Every action's
Turning
Into forefront
Forefront of tension!
Tension of survival
Struggle-full existence
Tension of getting at ease
Tension of being not teased
Tension of an infant
Tension of the mother
Tension of its nearness
Tension of its security zone.

Every action's
Turning
Into forefront
Forefront of tension!
Tension for weeping
Creeping and crawling
Tension of learning
Walking and talking
Reading and writing
Eating and cheating
Becoming equipped
Worldly wise and nice.

Every action's
Turning
Into forefront
Forefront of tension!
Tension of grand-old
Parents
Brothers and sisters
Social family circles.

Every action's
Turning
Into forefront
Forefront of tension!
Tension of newly linked
Couple
Husband and wife
Kids newly born
And so on
Facing all over
Front line of tension
Tension and tension
Nothing
Except tension alone!
