Who Is Abled? Poem by Sheshu Babu

In this turbulent world
Where impurity is found even in 'Gold',
Everyone has some sort of deformity
Lurking within them - a latent disability!

But no one cares for the disabled
Other than shower pity on the handicapped
Advising to resign to their fate
And satisfy with what comes their way- love or hate....

Despite development of technology
Improving accessibility and ' ecology'
Disabled stare at their 'physiology'
And failing depressive ' psychology'..

Though there is talk of positivity
Many individuals rising above their disability
Still large number of poor and marginalised
Remain with handicap into their body integrated....

The ritual of remembrance once a year
Will not solve perennial problem for ever
Until the person disabled
Forgets that s/ he is disabled...!
