Poetry Or Science? Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

In this age of science,
Science and technology,
Machines at work,
Robot engineering and technology,
What is the use of poetry,
Why to write poetry,
What can poetry give ultimately?

In this age of critical times
And abnormal living,
When acid rain, atomic summer and climate change
Seem to ruffle us,
What can it poetry give to man
When the existence of earth itself in peril,
When man goes killing man?

Wild life is facing massive destruction,
Exotic flora and fauna are on the verge
Or brink of extinction,
How to save life,
How to save the green earth
Is the question,
How to from deforestation?
