Poetry: The right word

by Akram Saqib

Created on: April 06, 2010

All the calamities on this earth

Is the only enemy of man?

Keep watching for the sake of mirth


Watch the man made tragedy

The earthquakes and the cyclones

In the hands of this species


The epidemics and the storms

Laugh at these human clowns

Dividing man into clans



The color creed and sects

The hegemony of religious policemen

Have become the unusual facts



The wild hogs never kill fellows

The man is killing man

These superior species send to the gallows


In the name of human rights

And for the cause of democracy

Corpse laden ships are alighted


Here comes a new actor

Becoming an easy pretext

To suck the nectar


From the olden coffers of faith

And the precious mines

Spread underneath


The reaction and the actions

Of the sages so called

Are the sole selection


To avenge upon the mankind

In the name of this or that

After exploiting the innocent mind
