FRENZY OF FANATICISM!
Freedom fighters for some,
Terrorists for others ;
Where killing and blood shedding
Remains a common denominator!
This can never be the best solution,
For there are no beneficiaries; -
In this game of killing spree and
frenzy!
Alas, terrorism today has become
A way of life in our civilized world!
It’s frequent occurrence,
Has made some of us indifferent,
And others to close their eyes!
The demonic flames of fanaticism is
Burning since centuries past,
Only God alone knows, how long it will last!
Till date, more blood has been shed,
Due to religious fanaticism and
Growing intolerance,
Than all the world wars put together,
And held in a measuring balance!
Holding mankind to ransom
Can never be our destined end; -
With the growing stockpile of guided-
missiles,
And misguided men!
