The Right To Dissent Poem by Rajendran Muthiah

They have got the assent
to kill the writers
who apply reason
in their expression.
They have got the blessings
of the Vedhas and Gitas
to lynch the lonely man
for eating beef.

The indigenous races
of this ancient land
must think of their
culture of tolerance,
virtue and mercy.
Don’t be cheated by these
narrow minded descendants
of the aliens who divide
people for their welfare
as it has been their culture
from the days of their sneaking
through the passes
in the north west of India.


Our nation is passing
Through the worst phase
after independence.
If you are in a democracy
you’ll have the right to dissent.
When you are in Aryan-crazy
you should think and write
eat and speak in the way
they dictate and impose
or else your life is not yours
