I wish the trembling night
That killed more the hundred or so last night
Was forever forbidden to enter
The hail of today's daylight..
The wee hours of yesyerday's callous morning
Murdered the honourable helpless victims
Citizens of Kolkata - unalarmed and sleeping
Unaware of the powerless victims...
Its a shock to the so-called city's grace
Beautied with honourable measle like
business leaders and politicians
Citizens emotions forced to rust
Under spotless lids of vacuum outbursts..
But alas! it took away the pitiful
Innocent harmless souls by methods unlawful
And never thought once about the families tearful..
Last night never clocked, me wishing -
the breaking of new year that's dawning
I wish the lives of so many of our kolkata souls
Was not as puppets in system forlorn..
In danger of heartless money swirling
Institutions and dependence that we believe in
Blood written today in Kolkata's history
We the puppets of destiny's misery..
