HALLMARK OF TIME


POEM

Like a lightning
striking a man/woman
blessing him/her
with instant salvation,
Like an earthquake
devastating a nation
without any warning
claiming thousands of lives
irrespective of rich or poor
and destroying properties
especially historic monuments,
like a gang of
terrorists in army uniforms
with deadly weapons in possession
killing innocent persons and destroying
properties by this hydra of
innumerable tentacles reaching every nook and cranny
are shot to death by the soldiers

uncertainty is the hallmark of our times.
