Poetry Only Is Rescue For All Ills! Poem by Ramesh T A

World is reeling under racism, terrorism and Nuclear proliferation;
All things are politicized and political game is played by politicians;
Tycoons exploit natural resources for boosting business interest;
Wars between nations may start as storms sooner or later it seems!

Nightmares make men psychosis hit creatures due to sleeplessness;
For diversion to recover from depression seek they in art, Nature and culture;
But even that in the name of civilization are buried as fossil things in museums;
When such tender and beautiful things are effaced, how can love and peace thrive?

If democracy is turned into indirect dictatorship rule, freedom and rights get nullified;
When individual liberty and rights are in doldrums, love will be story in literature;
When there is no time and chance for love, how can peace thrive in the world?
To inspire and arouse people fight against all ills, only Poetry can do miracles!

To crack hard nuts, diamond like brief poetry only can rescue all in fast world
That reels under the illusion of false civilization and progress of modernity!
