Not Everyone.. Poem by Veeraiyah Subbulakshmi

Not everyone is called as weird,
Not everyone is called as fools,
Not everyone is crucified on the cross,
The half hearted people believe in suspense.

Not everyone is called as the mad,
Not everyone is fed the hemlock in the cup,
Not everyone is poisoned with arsenic,
The common sense understands the facts.

Not everyone is shot near the chest,
When they are in the crowd with the fists,
Not everyone is hung in the Tamarind tree,
The evils always attack the innocents.

Not everyone has the guts to say it loud,
Not everyone has the people's support,
Not everyone feels the way the chosen have felt,
The desire of the mass always chooses the best.
