Such Is The World Poem by BASAB CHAUDHURI

Such Is The World

'The best lack all conviction while the worst are full of passionate intensity' - W. B. Yeats (1919) - The Second Coming.

Such is the world -
relevant for a while,
in whatever way it must be.

Relevant without content.
Relevant without ethics.

The necessity of being relevant
asks no question,
offers no justification.

Such is the world.
