Poetry by Shreyaa Tandel

Updated: Dec 16, 2019

Bloodstream


The wrong and right

Battle again

As the wrong races

To win nothing..

Heads broken

Eyes, knees,

Elbows, shoulders

You name it;

You name it

Till the resistance

Unfortunately

Takes it’s last breath.

You name it till the right voice

Raises both it’s hands

To the apparent instructions

Yelled harsh.

By the people doing,

Their apparent jobs..

Jobs of hate

Authoritative barbaric jobs

Causing a helpless blood stream

To voices voiced

Amidst the hate shrieks which go on..

Knowingly and unknowingly.

And people stay away

From the hate jobbers

People fear hate not faced by them;

They only see abnormality

When the wave nears to hitting their heads empty and rotten

And beyond this blood stream

Their remains unflinched resistance

A hope amongst oppression

As the ribbon of nothing extends as the wrong reaches near it

And the right remains itself

Before, after and beyond the

Bloodstream





Shreyaa Tandel is a self-established poet, or you can say amateur poet, from India.
