Humans and Humanity

This history is replete
with the evil and good forces,
whenever the arrogant evil
raised its ugly head
from time to time
the good as protector
came to the rescue
of the common people…

The common people
the helpless creatures
still get tormented by the evil
in one form or another
they remain the silent sufferers,
the mute spectators…

Nothing changes
only time has passed
and with the efflux of time,
the good, the God
doesn’t descend on and often
to intervene directly…

He has given us
his strength and will
courage and conviction
patience and perseverance
as His arms and ammunition,
we shouldn’t be afraid
of using them to counter the evil
as His dutiful representatives…

Love and humanity are His gifts
to us for being human
these have not been defeated
since time immemorial
and can’t be defeated
in future too…
