The silent man screamed the shit out of people


When a mute (vocally impaired) person tries to speak,
people with voices become more quiet.
By more quiet I mean dead shut up.
As their voices take refuge
behind their teeth.
Their guts go hide behind their guts.  

When a mute (vocally impaired) person barters words
People with voices go deep underwater.
They get nothing to exchange or offer.
Not even a seat. Or a corner.
In the whole new fancy office 
they can't stop bragging about.
And we (the people with voice) become dumb.

This is why it hurts the way it hurts.

Terrorism is in fashion




1)      From Bangladesh to Brussels
         From Paris to Germany
         It’s #EOSS (End of season sale).
         A wide variety of Kalashnikovs,
         Rifles, bombs and what not
         are a real steal!
               
            
 2)      You know well,
         Guns don’t kill people
         People kill people
         And people marinated
         In terror activities
         Seldom have a face
         But a style, a trend
         Which know no border
         No boundary.


3)      Every time a place is attacked,
         The world gets fractured.
         Every morning people wake up
         Desperate to know
         Whether they’re still alive.
 

4)      In the end, all trends die.
         All fashion become passé.
         Everything is overcome
         And life is lived.
         Tell me if Peace is
         The absence of this ugly fashion.


5)      "The show must go on!"
          is a lot more than
         a kitsch pop battle cry.
