Under Fear Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Under fear
We were not in know of humanly relation
Till the advent of new civilization
We built huts with glimmer of hope
Tied the animals with rope

It was just beginning
That we started threatening
Raised the army to rule
And to some extent became successful

We witness many upheavals
With mighty king’s dismissals
Son killed father and sometimes relatives
But it was subjected to and indicative

Powerful monarchy established religious supremacy
It was imposed as if will from an almighty
We can witness diversion among great religions
Bringing under sway many more regions

Lots of bloodshed was then and now
Same earth with seeds of hatred to plough
We are used to bloodbath
We have invented new path

Who cares for humanity?
Poor and innocent are dead already
No one sheds a drop of tear
People all over live under fear
