Running Out Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Running out
Saturday,13th June 2020

I am not ignorant
but present
the ghostly scenes
they were never seen this before

is it running out of patience?
or not given a chance
to live honorably
and lead peacefully

is it skin color?
that deprives you of honor
of being good human beings!
and that we have to witness the killings!

i don't know who incites the violence!
who wants to make the situation tense?
the ugly and tragic scenes must be stopped
the behavior has rendered slap on our face

whoever may be the guilty?
but it is after all great country
that has to undergo tragedy
and bear the brunt daily

Hasmukh Mehta
