Such hardship

I thank all those
who chose to be!
the part of this national tragedy
it is man made and not thrust upon by an almighty

how can we be insensible?
Not to feel the pain of people
who are living on with their only physical ability!
And still we feel proud of our nationality

let us say boldly
we are all acting shamelessly
never caring for plight of the people on the road
charging heavily from all those who want to board the buses

again shame goes to allthose states
who refuse to give entry to their subjects
adding woes to their own workers
who have gone out state as bread earners

Let God not cause such hardship
To unfortunate people who try to keep
Their honor not at stake but walk barefoot
Without any controversy to shoot

Hasmukh Mehta
