Today Poem by Hans Raj Sharma

The hell
Of terror
Reins
All over
Violence
Brutality
And bloodshed
Born
Out of
The womb
Of chaos
Atrocities
And anarchy
Pollutes
The whole
Earth
Its water and air
Surroundings
Far and distance
With compelled
Darkness and gloom

Who's there?
This century
To set
The things
Right at
Its place
Despotism
Or democracy
With definitions
Changed

Is solution
Otherwise?
Or only if
Good will
Prevails
To root out
Evil-
To root in
Goodness-
Selfless service
Of mankind
Alone.
