As the candles flicker in India Gate,
Staggering crowd move with disbelieve and hate
Chattering sounds of what to be done, who to be blamed,
Is every time a different victim to be named?
There must be smiling faces at a distance,
Officers wearing the tainted Khaki and their assistants
Wondering if protectors are turning predators,
How happy they are being the creditors!
With such quake, there is a lot of money that they make
Being placed at easy shades,
Charging innocents going to the lake
With their concern very fake,
To them only money can shake!
Zoomed in an Audi playing loud music,
Change in their attitude is very drastic,
Nodding at the underage driving the car
Probably being paid to have fun at the evening Bar
At the red light we stopped,
With the Auto wala I started to talk,
Meeting his ends was his biggest worry,
For his daughters marriage he was saving every penny,
Came in a man with smile in his mind and stick in his hand,
Rudely asking my Auto driver to park at the stand
On showing his licence and every document
To charge him for the wrong lower was the consent
Quivering the Auto wala said,
His license to drive has been snatched,
4000 is the amount in question,
For not wearing the same color lower was the reason
I try linking the sudden awareness
The reason to make the innocents life a mess,
Linking Who is protesting? Who is gaining? And whose heart is paining?
Perturbed by the height of unfairness!
