A Madman on a Deathbed

By Raag UA

A madman on a deathbed
Wants to be helpful,
Tries his best,
Asking for help
And trying to get over the pain.
And I know for a fact
All they wanted to tell him—
Every single person in the room
Wanted to tell him:

Stop this madness!
Please, just open your eyes,
See what you have accomplished.
It’s not paper,
It’s not great,
But just open your eyes and see what you’ve made.
Then you will see—
A madman on a deathbed
Ain’t a madman after all.
