Analysis of Power shutdown
I am staring at the front wall since half an hour
That wall clock to me seems like a sunflower
Ain’t no flower in my friend’s sight
Feels like I am getting blind,might
My concerned friend suggests me to take shower
On her suggestion I am in the shower
Perks of being Pakistani there’s no power
No water in tap I scream
Life is good only in dream
I heared a sound of blast from the front tower
Man next door advised me to have a solar power
To enjoy the privilege of anytime having a shower
Irony is that this is a color of life
Life is all about black and white
