Dalit Poems
BASIC PHILOSOPHY Basic original fundamental philosophy Always of the dominant caste hindus, Have been hide and rule from behind Pair of slippers placed in the throne ! Placed harmlessly in offices of power, Masks faces and namesake individuals Personalities considered just innocent Appealing acceptable to poor masses! Not real leaders but only dummy faces To fool simple people in different parts Of large illiterate backward Country, And sell them as good honest leaders ! Make People believe any false leaders As if they can develop deliver liberate Change modernise reform the Society, And bring a total new fresh dream life ! Raise hopes in the poor simple masses, Of beautiful future as the new leaders Lift from poverty and backwardness Misery morass and muddle the Nation ! Help dominant castes come to power, Though always are absolute minorities! Capture power offices and institutions Of all importance in the Governments ! Loot silently all the offices institutions, For the private benefits of themselves Families friends castes communities, Terribly costing People and Country ! For easy and comfortable personal life At cost of the Nation Society Masses, Take creative works efforts produce Of honest hard working simple People! The one single objective aim and goal, Everyone in offices of power privelege Profit is in and out of the Government, Clearly is to swindle loot defraud cheat! They are out to rob people of wealth Power produce food house and work Creations cattle land other belongings Capture women and ruin the children ! Wanting to enslave young and the old Men and women their mind and body, So that they can continue also in future Without working their lives of comfort! Enjoy really life of plenty and leasure, Without ever any little strain stresses, Not shedding any sweat blood tears, Soiling hands like their soiled brains ! - A Dalit Poet Previous Poem Next Poem |
