Glutes so tight
& Morals so loose;
Torsos so sculpted
& Psyches so tattered;
Voices so loud
– Yet cries that go unheard;
Prejudices so mighty
& Egos so fragile;
Quick to hurt
& Slow to forgive;
Connected by networks so dense
& distanced by chasms so wide;
Linked to everything
– Or chained to every damn thing?
‘Tis a world where
Virtual is a reality
& Virtue is a liability.
Impractical Dreamer: Sweety Shinde 
Awesome! So, apt, loved the way you have expressed the emotions/feelings.
Looking forward to more of such brilliant posts. Also, if possible, please do write in near future a book on ‘Arjun’s childhood, adventures and expeditions in detail’ in a book format, similar to the wonderful book you have written earlier ‘Arjun – Without a doubt’.

I would love to do that in the future. Perhaps not a full scale book but anecdotes and short stories. Thanks for the idea!

A modern day verse so clinical and precise. Indeed, density of network contrasts with rarity of bonhomie in a virtual reality. Good to see you after a long while, Sweety. Cheers…
