The Night After The Storm.
'Communal Violence' is such a storm which unlike natural storm devastate not only humans but also humanity. A wave of cruelty comes which breach the trust among close neighbors of years. I have tried to depict the night after that storm in my poem here in this post.
Burned houses,broken walls,
Uncountable in wells falls,
Tattered clothes,battered stalls,
Rests with the night after the storm.
Abort unborn,orphan infants,
Raped girls,homeless tenants,
Widows carrying child stagnant,
Remains with the night after the storm.
Lifeless bodies,food-less alive,
Yearning babies,futile strive,
Killers of humanity just thrive,
Results with the night after the storm.
False promises,pretense visits,
Blame games and political gimmicks,
Fake announcements by strategists,
Resonates with the night after the storm.
These acts of violence are ongoing since our independence. They are slur on our composite culture,but that doesn't mean our combine traditions will be vanished there is always hope when there is love.
But that's not all,humanity never fall,
For every devilish human,there are more angelic human,
Who spread the message of love and oneness,
Who strengthen bond of trust and Indianness.
