Born In the Heaven

This poem is dedicated to all the fighters who are amidst the uncalled civil wars. The heaven symbolises the homeland for whom they are fighting not to free but to survive.

Born In the Heaven

He was born in the heaven,

It was March, nineteen eighty-seven.

Doctors were pleased to save his life,

But were in grief, as the mother didn’t survive.

------------------------------------------------

Sagina, was there since July ’86,

After being raped by a gang of six.

Fighting her unconsciousness and death,

Nourished the child, growing on her fate.

--------------------------------------------------

The first days of his life were all black & white,

When he was fighting the death to survive.

Doctors were rushing in and out,

Desperation was to see him sprout.

-------------------------------------------

He survived, not as his fate decided,

He took birth, as only the doctors wanted.

As he was a challenge to their profession,

His survival was much needed for their succession.

---------------------------------------------

The first few years, he passed in a mosque,

Where he was adopted by a priest, Safaque.

He was growing there by the rules of Islam,

His first words were the verses of Holy Qur’an.

----------------------------------------------------

In the days when world was still a paradise,

When peoples were to him good and nice,

He saw the first real nightmare,

As he saw ‘Abbu’ crying in despair.

---------------------------------------------------

‘Abbu’ was shot thrice in his chest,

By the so-called disciples of Prophet.

Who were fighting their own ‘Jihad’,

And were redefining the word ‘Islam’.

--------------------------------------------

He was homeless as before,

Once again on his fate as before,

But was there a new tag on his forehead,

The name of his father, as against the fate.

------------------------------------------------------------

A policeman took his custody,

Life was once again showing the melody

But the melody lasted just a year,

When he’s left again, amidst his fear.

---------------------------------------------------------

The next years he worked in tea stall,

Where he was becoming thin, but tall.

The days were as painful as him,

His life a work without any theme.

--------------------------------------------------------

When he was just a mere, fourteen,

Got nabbed up, by a Mujahiddin,

The pen holding hand was now holding a gun,

Whose firings some time left him also, numb.

-----------------------------------------------------------

The paradise transformed itself to, a hell,

He couldn’t move there without a veil,

His living was on snow and ice,

But got a new tag on his forehead, a new price.

-------------------------------------------------------------

It was again the March, but 2004

He was lying there among the four.

He was shot dead by the military,

Who retaliated his untrained gun spree.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Who was responsible for his death?

The militants? Who gave him the gun, for the food.

Or, the doctors? Who save him, to reach the adulthood.

Or his mother? Who unconsciously, but nourished his vein.

Or he himself? Who unknowingly, but was born in the heaven.

Indo-US nuclear deal

I was thinking not to write about this,but couldn't help myself writing this.I know this is harsh subject still beyond my grasps but hey who cares.No one is caring,not even the governments who signed them without asking anythingfrom their respective people whom they represent.Isn't it harsh but who gives a damn about it.
Let's start with Indian approach.

The government:

Keen on implementing,but still can't implemnt it.Why? Because it came with a precondition Vote against Tehran. Against Indian energy interest!I don't think they forgot the reaction from Iran in which they clearly stated to use a cautious approach towards Iran.Indirect Diplomatic threat!

The anti US left.Another hurdle but can't move without them as they are part of the policies,as they are part of the government.I can't understand their issue,cause they even don't know their policies as it is not possible for a left party to say something conclusively in a non-communist country but they are correct as the need of energy should not let us down to the feet of imperialists.

US view:

They knew India has a great market, a good need of energy requirement,and what US has, great deal of weapons to sell in the troubled region of south asia,especially Indian peninsula. Thanks to a grand old controversy between India and Pakistan,starting an arm race.So it wnats to make India it's ally so as to sell weapons to both country, one a special non NATO member and another a great country. I don't know what US approach will be when their will be a war between India-PAk(though I pray never to happen). Funny!
Also they know India is growing in economy and one can't stop them soon to be independent in terms of energy resources,so what he is doing crippling them by providing aid and stopping them to develop their own. Nice!
And they knew that being the closest neighbour India has a greater problem with Iran becoming nuclear,who knows when that country will be taken over by Islamist fundamentalists and India will have a major problem with dealing with two Islamist hardcore nuclear countries.
what a damn it will be .
So who gives a damn.I know it will be just another treaty creating controversies and ending in a treat to both countries especially US.
My question how will India decide how to separate civil and military reactors?????
Funny.
Even the government don't know. Not Indian nor the US.

Want a review ????
