Dead Hearts Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Dead hearts
Saturday,21st July 2018

is it the butcher's art?
that shows no kindness for good start
why do we shed blood?
when the importance of human being is clearly understood

have we gone insane?
and often shown
the intolerance and the hate
in no words, we can relate

we have turned intolerant
and present
ourselves as protector
of good cause as an actor

in fact, we have lost the sensibility
and respect towards the humanity
we know that it is futile exercise
yet by our madness, we surprise

we have become materialistic
and forgotten the basic
and moral values towards fellow brethren
and turned the holy land into hell from the heaven

we have become cruel
and speak no well
hurl abuses
and miss all the opportunities

Hasmukh Amathalal Mehta
