This Is Democracy Poem by Sankhajit Bhattacharjee

This Is Democracy

'Can you name any right-handed human
during VIL or JVS's era in USSR'?

'No'.

'But I can name many left-handed faces here'.

'Right-handed humans failed to challenge the left-handed faces'.

'They were destroyed there...but here we allowed
other faiths to grow normally like weed'.

Silence.

'This is what is called democracy-
World's Largest Democracy indeed-
balance of opposite powers and minds'.

Ever silence.
