In the Tavern of Life

In the Tavern of Life
I ordered some Meal
Knowledge, right besides me
Stood there on his heel

I saw Death stare right at me
Oh! And Sickness was there smiling
And how could I forget Sorrows there
With Happiness was he dining

I looked around, I saw Clocks
Of all sorts, Broken and New
I even saw bowls and spoon
And leftovers the guests threw

Confusion came to me, looked at me instead
He called upon Temptation for some compliment
On seeing that Anger came running there
I saw Greed pull up his sleeve for a comment

Love sat distressed, hatred catching her hands
Respect was there running around chased by attitude
Fear ran on top chasing Good and Satisfaction
Lust was content, Sex sat there nude

At last came my Meal
Soup of Souls, Spirits for Drink
Those all weird faces staring at me
I hurried and walked away
