Tongue- Poisonous Tone Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Tongue- Poisonous tone
Thursday,16th July 2020

There is a notorious part called a tongue
it makes a vague reference
it makes the environment very much tense
and passes the selective sentence

even though, it is closed behind
but finds
some space
when there is an emotional race

if you let her loose
it may choose
the freedom of hurling the abuses
and miss no chance

it makes a person feel shame
and earn the blame
without any active role being played
the person feels aghast and dismayed

the tongue has no bone
but damage can be done
by vomiting poisonous tone
to cause havoc and make the good things undone

Hasmukh Mehta
