War, Death And Shadow! Poem by Mrityunjay Jha

Death not foreshadowed
for
Death and Shadow
Are One:
Both Surprise
And,
Shatter
All Illusions of Eternity!
And,
WAR?
An Interlude
Between
The Dying
and
The Dead.

Bleed Not
Eyes
Tears still Most Holy!
The Muted Eyes and The Gazing Mouths
And,
The Numbed Minds
Shall never go in vain!
The Crying Soul
The Beatless Heart
Are
Curses
Chasing
The Wolves and Hyenas
To Their Graves!

Every Beginning
Keeps
The seeds of an Ending
Deep
Dormant
Inside!

War
Blurs
All Distinctions
And,
Differences!
End and Beginning
Seems
One and The Same!


War: A Great Leveler
For
It makes
Every Voice
Dying!



Alas!
NO ONE SEES THE END OF WAR
EXCEPT
THE DEAD..
