Mountain of human sufferings,
Dream of a square meal 
at least one time a day 
Dreams of jobs worth earning peanuts 
by millions of youths
corruption corroding 
the social fabric 
starving children witnessing 
mothers with empty stomachs 
willingly falling
prey to the sex-starved
human beasts 
street children beginning 
to learn pick-pocketing 
in local trains and buses 
often getting thrashed 
and reduced into pulp 
by the passengers 
and 
increasing numbers of witnesses 
turning stone-hearted, 
unresponsive day by day
with loud claims of 
shining India rent the air 
across the land 
the exact opposite is but
true…..
