Come Another Tsunami!!!
Who said Tsunami victims
Lost their dear ones
And belongings?
May be!
But, gains surpass losses!
Strange relationships,
Instant fathers, brothers and uncles
With tears in their eyes,
Greed in their heart,
Embraced the bodies of the dead -
Beloved ones unable to recognize
Removed necklace, bangles, ear-rings
Whatever was gold for remembrance?
Day visits and night visits
To abandoned houses
Removed TVs, computers
Whatever valuable
For safe-keeping in their abodes
Instant husbands
Re-defining sexual violence
Instant Samaritans so kind
Fruits of relief they swallow
Who said
Tsunami brought only destruction?
Come another Tsunami
Pray
Human Vultures!
