CONFRONT

 



CONFRONT

 

Confide the story that wounded,

Insulted media, people, my country,

Humiliated constitutional head freely,

Devastated social fabric torn, angered,

Attacked media, unbiased posts, facts,

Journalists feel insecure, face laws,

It means vogue freedom to publish,

Coin democracy or the constitution,

Equal-right and fighting for the right,

Liberty, linked to intentional, a provoke,

Read news national and state issues,

Conflict controls communities,

Long arms law fails to trace a few,

Invisible to public  and police acts,

Foment trouble, peace, amity, affects,

Speak the fact, face troubles,

Be alert, decently spirit, keep silent,

Check the swaging tongue angry,

Evade arson, loot, burning, be safe,

If knew, pretend ignorant evade,

Who is right or culprit is confusing,

Guise, not easy to crack, ignore,

A citizen under the lens is watched,

Traffic, internet, public places,

Under surveillance hook interest,

Complain media will censor,

A viral cyber circuit will be booked,

Notice under offense trouble,

A generation back, tell me frankly,

No intimidation or prosecution,

Civil liberty respected, published,

Healthy discussion amity prospered,

Trust between tongues, cultures,

Tolerance was visible to all faiths,

Attack on country, rule, minimal,

Based, really, on corruption, delay,

Fiery comments inflamed the public,

Respected writers, authors praised,

Bruised with satire, caustic views,

Threats communicated on life,

Current scenarios point to safety,

Security ensured if non-reactive,

The freedom life enjoyed vanishing,

Forced arms of law restrict all,

Festival an issue violence-prone,

Keep within doors, enjoy home,

Walking alone on the road is unsafe,

Equally dangerous at day or night,

Write this unpleasant world, reality,

Dangerous environment polluted,

Air, water, food, the human mind,

Poisonous beware of the soul be aloof,

Democracy is the biggest joke, laughing,

Source of crime, power, and the rich,

Bends arm of laws at whims,

Confides to you be silent, timid life,

Fearful of light, cyberspace, media,

Watch floods, cyclones, and fires, pray,

Pray for the country, safe, united,

Pray for peaceful land, be happy,

Prayer for the poor, sufferer, innocent,

Pray for rulers, safe, function,

Pray for the media, the honest, help people,

Pray for a university, truly autonomous,

Free from politics, religion, and conflicts,

Pray, better confront the loose tongue.
