For the much voiced <br />Injustice in front of eyes <br />In metaphor goes the elephant <br />To be shown to those with sights <br />For some is to ignore hue and cry <br /> <br />For some the nights and days <br />Burning oil for a praise <br />Of the word written <br />To woe the strangers <br />For others take and give <br />Eulogize each other in return <br /> <br />Some emerged overnight <br />From infancy others grown <br />To lead the turmoil <br />With much fervor <br />For having discovered the lies <br />In the truth <br />On its face <br />Some others have opted <br />Pulling the dead poet <br />Up the hill <br />To be graded amongst the living <br /> <br />Born out of lies the poets of today <br />What truth shall they speak <br />When the courage in morality <br />Is one to be above all <br /> <br />Plagiarism a minor evil <br />In this ruthless game <br />No rules and laws can mend <br />But the conscience itself <br />18/7/2009 <br /> <br />For poets of poem hunter<br /><br />Sadiqullah Khan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/lies-in-the-truth/
