Clothing The Mind

If by changing clothes
the mind could change
the textile industry
would have flourished.

Mind's nature changes
not by clothes,designer suits
or Michael Angelo's brushes,
Yes changes, when blood spills
from stabbed wounds,
when children turn away
leaving weeping old eyes.
When cry of raped women
is left unheard on roads,
when illusionary flashes
of lovers mock at you,
when silence returns
from stone walls
the mind whirls
like a broken top
what clothes can restore
mind's wholeness.
