I Say It Bluntly Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

I say it bluntly
Saturday,20th Nov 2021

I say it bluntly
and put an end immediately
no language has a controlled power to come out openly
and speak something against all readily

what have we shown so far?
have we written about unknown fear?
we have written goodie goodie
and claimed ourselves as free pots

we have no guts
but to excuse with if and buts
it solves no problem
we are unable to tackle them

we talk about peace
right nicely to please
but never get back its response
neither we nor the people are at an ease

life moves on
discourtesy is shown
no responsibility is owned
as such morality is drowned

it is problem with us
we have mistrust
we have lust and desire
so it stops from admiring others

life shall change
if we all manage
with our behaviour and thinking
else it will sink further

time has come to admit
and greet
our brethren
and make this loving earth a beautiful heaven
