| DEATH HAS BECOME JUST NUMBERS! | |

DEATH HAS BECOME JUST NUMBERS! 46 dead, 3300 affected, Delhi toll is worst 4 die of suspected dengue in 16 days Scattered violence kills 25 in Iraq 54 killed in Lanka clashes War, violence, calamities and nature All are in a hurry To outdo each other As death surrounds all over Newspapers and television Sell these deaths with gusto Shouting aloud of atrocities With no remorse, whatsoever Politicians talk of peace While people are dying all over It’s not their concern how many are dying As long as they are in power Readers flip through the newspapers Audience browses through the news channels To read and see respectively 46, 4, 25, 54 or else 157 Death! Has become so sensational Death! Has become so commercial Death! Has become so callous Death! Do we really care? Reading, viewing and experiencing Deaths around the world Hardly brings a tear in our eyes Because death has just become a number today! Johnny D 8th October 2006
