This Remains True Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

This remains true
Friday,23rd October 2020

Not yesterday
not even today
but tomorrow too
this shall remain true

you shall never stop
your drive to remain on the top
with all destructive weapons
to win forceable all nations

You are evil forces
you may use all sources
to destroy the things coming in your way
and determine the sway

who shall pay for it dearly?
all the population nearly
who shall die for an unknown cause
no one shall pause for a while and think

what have we to gain?
except for anguish, misery and pain!
the world may remain unconcerned
the situation may not be happily turned

who shall suffer?
and get brief respite with our offers
they are born with deformities and disease
the internal conflicts may never cease

what future shall you envisage?
when presenting there for the children
food shortage, deformities, no employment
only curses to remember and resent!

who will be there to help?
when more skeletons shall be stored in the shelf!
the world for tomorrow is worrying
you may not realize today but definitely carrying the concern
