Hands Heave to Harm and Hamper

24 Dec 2009

·vivekanand Jha

Our hands heave To harm and hamper, Not to help and heal. Not to assist The damsel in distress Instead feel refresh In molesting mistress. Not to weaken The woes of widows But apt to weaken Their only credos. Not to stop The rape But we are top In viewing the naked tape. We have destitution In deleting the prostitution But we are to the fore In bargaining the whore. Not to prohibit The child labour But not hesitate to inhibit Their favour. Not to curb The poverty But ready to disturb The Poor’s liberty. We use stick To persecute the weak We use flower To adorn the tower. Not to ameliorate Law and order But not fret to generate Chaos and disorder. We have temptation To incur evil reputation But we have palpitation In getting good inspiration. We praise When our hands raise To tarnish and damage The image of sage. We neglect The existing institution But we accept The amendment of constitution. What a relief! If our hands heave To leave Harm and hamper But to help and heal.
