Mass & Media Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Mass & media
Friday,9th July 2021

The human mind is the devil's workshop
and shops the ideas
from powerful forces
and finds new sources

the human mind is susceptible to input
and shuts other doors
that provides a true and real picture
and assures its acceptance

the human mind is not only weak
but speaks in uncertain terms
and turns truth into untruth
and seeks proof

the media plays a vital role
and calls upon
the large population
to accept their version

thus media becomes an indomitable force
that restricts the true source
to appear and clarify
largely they magnify the wrong sources or reports

the human mind accepts what is presented
the media report is never resented
until the true exposure appears
meanwhile, it has become very late to clear the cloud

the media have become a powerful tool
it can make others fool
as lies repeated a hundred times becomes the truth
and it spreads like wildfire and needs no proof
