The Emphasis

There is much more emphasis on lies to build a narrative

Written in charcoal hues, the papers surrender to the deep smudges

Bold claims along with wild promises form the letters in a convoluted pattern

Expected to chant, memorise, and propagate them with passion

Now, the tongue too has a darker shade of the language; their inflexion is also an indication

The path they are going to travel and take innocent thoughts along

Chant in spite of the warning, because it is supposed to be the trend

Unaware of invoking the demonic spirits lured by the passionate chants
