No stones thrown

(From my poetry Collection 'Signatures')

Debating over some one’s creation

I don’t quite understand

why  does anyone need to debate

over one man’s creation

done out of  his pouring breath, blood

and all labour of his life time.;

Over a cup of tea

and among air conditioned gathering

we discuss, dissect and debate

all the crimes he or she had done;

within the restricted time limit

then we run to catch our train

promptly after collecting  our fee;

unmindful of the scars left bleeding

over him or her for the curse

he or she needed to bear with

as a person named for creation.

But one solace;

In Tamil, there is a proverb

No stones  thrown

over a unyielding tree.
