Food For Thought Poem by Vijay Sai R

Food For Thought



Railway budget announced
Fares hiked
Petrol prices
Soaring high
Militants surrender
Rifles recovered
Kashmir issue
Curfew raised
Police fire tear-gas
Collector to visit
Government hospital tomorrow
Inspecting condition
New services
Deluxe buses inaugurated
Between Chennai and Trichy
Government announce
Nutrition meals
To children in asylum
Encroachment removed
Traffic smoothened
Heavy rain
Slums inundated
Power black-out
Grid units fail
Technicians in operation
People struggle
Normal life interrupted
Bilateral series
India won
Sachin scores double
All these and many more
Hot topics in today's debate
Men folks gather
Tea shops so crowded
Every news put to sword!

except the tea shops. Here is coffee shops, everything is very similar to Brazil. I think that most of the world now lives this ordered chaos.

a poem of such taste is born out of our soil in India. The trend never lacks poets like Vijay Sai whose stroke of pen enlightens the corrupted administrators and rulers. A pen picture of failed state of India is vividly forecast.
