The Writing On The Wall Poem by Ruta Mohapatra

The Writing On The Wall



Silence a voice
And its echo will reach
Other hearts, other ears
And one day
The echoes will deafen you

Are you ready
To hear the echoes?
You who are so sure
Of the power
You have over others?

You who choose to forget history
Because you think
You can alter it
And believe that you will succeed
Where all despots failed?
