Where Have The Gods Fled? Poem by SANJAY KUMAR SINGH

Where Have The Gods Fled?



I have washed it so, but it doesn't go,
The blood remains, thick and heavy,
Sticking as it does, on hands of many,
Blood on hands in prayer raised,
Blood in the name of religion shed,
Seeping in earth, darkening it red,
Hiding in corpses of innocent dead
Is it where the gods have fled?
