A DYING NECESSITY?

A DYING NECESSITY?

Is it a dying necessity:
To throw dust in one’s gullible eyes
To gag one’s credulous tongue
To strangle one’s guiltless breath
To parch one’s thirsty throat
To kick at one’s hungry stomach
To drag one’s helpless, staggering feet and trip
To trample upon one’s wounded bosom
To drain one’s living blood
To massacre one’s unalloyed emotions
To blast one’s ultimate dreams to get our own base wants fulfilled?


* gullible – innocent/ easy to fool
* gag – silence/ suppress
* credulous – unsuspecting/ trusting easily without doubt
* strangle – choke
* parch – dry out
* massacre – kill a mass number of people
* unalloyed emotions – pure feelings
* blast – explode/ blow up
