People turned sages
When something wrong is done in rage
That incidence changes their whole attitude
They realize why "spade is called spade"
The great Ashoka, ancient powerful king, turned to sage
The battle of Kalinga* made him to think about human blaze
Thousands perished in battle field for no gain
Only humanity cried with pain
How can we kill people praying God?
In holy place where refuge is sought
Lord himself thinks of such mad nuisance!
The life is short and given as simple chance
Cyclone hits sea shore and nearby places
How many die with irrespective count of races?
This happens when things go out of control
Nature has powerful weapon to fall
Let us not turn to full noble man
Let us show we are human
We may be powerless to perform better way
It least from reality it should not drag us away
*Kalinga… battle field
