Award Vendor-Open Letter Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Award vendor-Open letter
Sunday,15th March 2020

What makes you think?
without knowing the power of ink!
in which way, the literature can take
and make you defend for name sake

owning a group or sight
may bring delight
but not will power to fight against
the malpractice for selfish interest

how long will you fool?
and remain successful
when you don't know the ABC of literature?
and trying to keep everybody for sure

you shall be hated and condemned
and damned
for your anti-literature activities
that has proved your incapacity

you claim for the peace and harmony
but you can't tolerate even criticism by any
you are axing the senior people
and making all others to struggle

you are demeaning the value of awards
and exchange it with all those
who really have done nothing
you have become street vendor for such acting

Hasmukh Mehta
