Raskolnikov has done a crime again ……

To the Unsmoothing sky I said my secret remorse

Gathering dark clouds laughed at me

Retired tides faraway got a silence mood

Beheld at my long face

lovely wife shaken her smiles

sniggering at me always hit her words

“You Rascal, nothing has done to you yet”

I was numb to be a stone

One day I hid to catch that Lovely lady SONYA

I knew it was she my relief

If Prostitute she was

Soon after I set about my short episode

She handed me a visiting card

“Here is my visiting card. Call me for an appointment

One hour two thousand as you like”

She dwindles away through the black air fogs

It was SHE certainly I wonder whether she bit changed
