Matter of an opinion!!!

Every where I see,
Difference in opinion of people free.
Everyone holds their choices,
Free world grants them rights to raise their voices.


Voices are raised,
Opinions expressed.
Comments heard,
Points accepted.


Conflicts arise,
Debated on.
One man’s opinion,
Objected to by another one.


Soon the crowd joins in,
Heated words rattling as empty tin.
Mob rising from sincere crowd,
Orthodox people, renaming frustration as “being proud”.


Fight goes on and on,
Morons fighting, under ego’s tone.
Add religion and watch the show,
Politicians delightfully build vote-banks from such a row.


Left finds reasons to criticize right,
Ruling right blames left for the fight.
Political blame games go on high,
Media reports riots with fake sigh.


Buses burnt, strikes called.
People die, curfew settled.
Riots finished, matter unsolved.
Opinions stay but the war is cold.


Family’s dead, shops looted, homes ragged, vehicles flashed,
Citizens are the sufferers with feelings gashed.
But politicians love to take advantage,
Salt the gash with sabotage.


I wonder at the innocence of people,
Or should I say stupidity of suckers with nipples.
Indian citizens are getting literate,
Yet they follow and pacify words of politicians and jerks illiterate.


Indians are all sheep walkers,
Push one and find the followers.
The right to freedom of speech,
Abused properly with this siege.


I feel pity for the fellow Indians,
Wish them sense to realize and develop personal opinions.
I wish them to understand the diversity,
To follow or discuss opinions in prosperity.
