The Whys And The Wherefores! Poem by Navod Jayasuriya
The Whys And The Wherefores!
Abetted in the deception by the liberty,
Formulations upon the criminals with insanity,
Accumulation of possessions without dignity,
Aching for perpetual avarice with unknown humanity.
A catastrophic circumstance on a Sunday morning,
Massacring hundreds of mortal beings,
And yet, some are barely surviving,
With almost concealed forlorn and woebegone feelings.
Alas! such a crowd with an abyss of ignorance,
And bereft of adequate predominant acumen,
Such absorbed minds contending for power,
While voters losing their temper.
Thoroughly arrogating to themselves the right of reckoning,
Either way of breaking or bending the bidding,
And getting acquitted so easily after all,
Also not forget in abdicating the duties,
Which were gifts for reliabilities.
This is a political allusion I compose,
To the dictating politicians of course,
Evoking the memories of 21st, Sunday morning,
And a reminiscence for those with mourning.
I hold the opinion that the politicians must take the whole responsibility regarding the particular circumstance as if ever wanted, they could have terminated the attack. But for the doomed
unfortunate and for the propitious time, innocence were left to hold the forbearance alone, after all. The matter I need to emphasize and to foreground is that politicians did not look after those bereaved families even after the occurrence of the incident. One or two left in a family; in some, children are hardly living with memories of their parents who almost passed away leaving them alone.
Who could ever do such a thing? And who would ever have thought any of these? . There are lot more questions awaiting for answers. And somehow, I think those questions will never ever receive the answers.
