Careless Selfie

She stands there
Taking a selfie
Hand held camera
Just few inches away
Pouting and creating
Weird expressions
That could put monkeys to shame

She cares not
For art or for the architecture
Nor the beautiful colors
Of rainbow
Nor the fragrance of flowers
Nor the flight of speeding train

She sees nothing with
Naked eye
Just reflection of herself
On mobile plate
Unaware of the danger
Of missing a step
As she blindly moves
Backwards
On uneven plane

Taking a selfie
Is such a craze
Of sharing with the world
The brave act
Of being there
Done that
Showing the proof
On Instagram
Facebook
Twitter
Snapchat

She cares not
If she becomes
A celebrity
Behind the silent grave.....
