THE BARRICADE

Surge of tens of
thousands of
forces of outrage gushed forth
finally hit the
barricades in a row
erected by forces of law and order
pushed the barricades back
the men in imposing
uniforms
got drowned in outrage
forced them to
employ lathis, bayonets
tear gas shells, water cannons,
grenades
and when all resorts
failed
fired in the air first
to scare away the forces
of outrage
then fired direct
killed many
maimed many
wounded many
and all
got scattered for the moment
but
regrouped within no time
as also the forces of
law and order
with the mandarins in
the corridors of power
playing fiddling Neros.
