It is alright to be ANGRY!
to the streets
shout for justice...
for those who cannot / could not
for themselves!
It is alright to give up privileges,
atleast sometimes
swim waters unknown.
It is alright to stand up
against the strong,
to amend
to change
to do what we have never done before…
It is alright to imagine.
It is alright to imagine
that the dead eight year old
could have been your own.
could have been your own.
It is alright to imagine
that the dead man who sought justice
for his daughter
could have been your own.
for his daughter
could have been your own.
It is alright to acknowledge
that the scoundrels of #Kathua
and #Unnao are criminals.
and #Unnao are criminals.
It
is alright to speak out
of
their connections
with the ruling elite.
with the ruling elite.
Its alright to speak of
silent prime ministers,
of gangs of thugs,
and peddlers of hate and religion.
It is alright
with people you have never known,
in
reality or imagination
and
stand together as a wall
to ensure
never
again…
Never again an eight year old
or
another defenseless soul,
in
your land or mine,
far
or near
must
live in fear.
It
is alright
against
injustice and discrimination.
It
is alright to feel humane
It
is all right to break your chain.
