Wherefore : An acrostic after ages

Where is, oh, indeed. whither(ed) is 

 Hope, any ray, in this hapless world

 Even as earth has nothing fair to show

Rise in this wilderness bitter a row after a row

Even as armies clash while darknesses unfurled

Fear reigns supreme , a cat trots among geese

Obscenely splintered the center cannot hold

Rumble many an evil as anarchies unfold

Eagerly as I await the benedictions my childhood tales told! 

pratima@life is a tale told by a fanatic

                why, oh, why, yarns so satanic

Better beware!

 Do you like old Bollywood films? I sure do. They have a few stereotypes though, such as the 'beta who passes B.A. with first class'...
