“War Ain’t Peace (The Sonnet) Hudson, Thames, Nile and Sindhu, All are now red with the blood of the innocent. Who is to blame for such catastrophe, Everybody who accepts arms race as upliftment. Suited savages have seduced them to believe, That bigger the military greater the pride. It’s necessary for politicians to sell nationalism, Or else their loyal subjects will all get untied. Acts of national security only breed insecurity, Which forces people to seek comfort in weapons. True, lasting stability and serenity of a nation, Comes only from a universal desire for union. Let the politicians sell war in the name of peace. Why must the citizens buy it like rats chasing cheese!” — Abhijit Naskar
War Ain’t Peace (The Sonnet)
Hudson, Thames, Nile and Sindhu,
All are now red with the blood of the innocent.
Who is to blame for such catastrophe,
Everybody who accepts arms race as upliftment.
Suited savages have seduced them to believe,
That bigger the military greater the pride.
It’s necessary for politicians to sell nationalism,
Or else their loyal subjects will all get untied.
Acts of national security only breed insecurity,
Which forces people to seek comfort in weapons.
True, lasting stability and serenity of a nation,
Comes only from a universal desire for union.
Let the politicians sell war in the name of peace.
Why must the citizens buy it like rats chasing cheese!
