THE UNKNOWN SOLDIER

Why should I feel the horror
Why should I bother for Pulwama
Why should I agitate my conscience
Why should I disturb the indifference

Why should I feel it is my problem
Why should I feel any pain
Why should I care to pause
Why should I pause to care

Why should I look beyond myself
Why should I think about the sacrifice
Why should I think about the families
Why should I internalise the suffering

Why should I spoil my sleep
Why should I wreck my mood
Why should I alter my position
Why should I call myself human

  1. This gruesome slaughter of our jawans is gut wrenching. Families wrecked & grief struck. We r living in terrible times. The Govt. Must act swiftly and let everyone in this world know.
    Subir, thanks for rocking our conscience.
    Actually the lack of proper intelligence & security is appalling. We r always being shocked by a wild cat strike by someone.

  2. In as much as I am a part of the collective consciousness of the humanity I have little choice but to share the pain & the horror resulting from the events around me.
