“Unspoken Truths (The Sonnet)

Democracy is people-approved dictatorship,
Military is people-approved genocide.
Atom bombs are people-approved armageddon,
In conscience-court all guilty of homicide.

There is no time left, for there never was time,
Time begins with the beginning of civilization.
And civilization is something we are yet to find,
Hence, there is no question of clock progression.

Nationalist chimps sell war in the name of security,
Stoneage civilians rush to bulk-buy graveyard plots.
Merchant of murder, you, yell about peacekeeping,
While you feast on nationalism like wet little cods!

When cavemen take pride in their national glory of death,
Sanctuary becomes asylum for the lunatic walking dead!”

Abhijit Naskar, Tum Dunya Tek Millet: Greatest Country on Earth is Earth
