Poisonos Girls Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Wars are not won merely by bravery
You may have large army of infantry or cavalry
Wars may bring destruction and misery
It is useless, senseless and simply unnecessary

War can be won by use of diplomacy
May settle problem and establish supremacy
On one side threat and other side peace advocacy
Open field for sending state to insolvency

How many lives may be lost in process?
Atrocities, torture and force used in excess
No horrified tales to find its way to world
Deaths, hunger, poverty only to emerge in cold

Modern warfare involves great precision
But lacks firmness and vision or decision
Faulty planning and error leads to war
Nobody thinks of war and what is meant for!

Our ancestors had great vision ands reason
Boundaries were fully secured in all the seasons
Prosperity all over and no worry for invasion
Death penalty for robbery and high treason

Girls were used for sabotage in neighbourhood
They were reared and fed the poisonous food
Sent with mission to kill the easy target
Kingdoms sent into jittery and preparedness forget

Many kingdoms were simply raged to ground
The real reason was not ascertained or found
Poisonous girls played their part as sacred duty
They were not ashamed or felt pity

It is nature’s law that simply allow
Big fishes go to small one to swallow
It is continuous process and goes on
We simply catch the mood and act upon

Big kingdoms used to adopt same way
In long run it stood ground and used to pay
Little kingdoms lost their territory and freedom
This might be considered as tactics and wisdom

Modern diplomacy lack teeth have no such tactics
It only thrives and relies upon figures and statistics
Brutal use of force or aggression is only way in politics
Sovereign states are free to determine course of action
Territorial integrity and freedom should invite no reaction
