Hypocrisy

by Aparna Chatterjee

That seemingly
Respectable man
With a seemingly
Happy family…
Runs good websites
And preaches
Women's issues
But watches
Pornography in private
And seeks online sex.

No wonder,
There are two sides
To a moon
As there are two sides
To a coin.

Comments on this Poem

The first stanza describes two sides to a man, a light and a dark side, which the simile of the moon in the second is intended to emphasize:

No wonder,
There are two sides
To a moon
As there are two sides
To a man.
