Injury And Insult. Poem by Nabakishore Dash

Injury And Insult.

Rating: 5.0

Cut-throat words
are more injurious
than cutting the throat
by sharp instruments.
The latter causes instant
death while the former is
like the smoldering coal
in one's heart.

Someday the smoldering coal
would burst into fire,
death overpowers with
unspeakable pain.
This slow poisoning is
invariably more injurious
and grievous for any human.

Think for a moment
before hurling bitter
and harsh words
at others.
You can definitely realise
the presence of the
one and the same God
in theirs.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Before hurling insulting words at others, kindly think for a moment and you can find the presence of the same God.
