The Friendly Octopus

Many doors of discomfort

Many doors of infighting

Many doors of struggling

The liberation banner is on

The battle is on.

But the friendly octopus

Tightens its grips

With firm tentacles

On the dusty treasures

It suffocates its prey

The helpless prey is whimpering

 Falling and yet worshiping this deadly traps

Yet the octopus like a spider

Spins intricate webs for this weak poor prey.

With infested wounds the prey

Yells for uncomfortable partnership

From this friendly octopus of yesteryear

Hmmm! This prey must rethink of rebirth

It must rejuvenate and revive the liberation breeze

For a happy destiny.

The prey must betray its betrayers

And renew its eternal baptism

For its eminent salvation.
