Poem
When their daughter asks them about the Renaissance, they’ll tell her about Da Vinci’s ‘Last Supper’, Andreas Versailus and Nicholas Copernicus but I wish them to tell her how Galileo Galilei was imprisoned by the Priests for declaring facts against their theological principles and how Martin Luther led the Reformation. I need them to tell her how Michelangelo wrote a sonnet about misery and the distasteful side of his work on the Sistine Chapel ceiling. Will they tell her about the barbarous Crusades right before the Renaissance and the French wars of religion? I want them to tell her how Mussolini came up with something as inhuman as Fascism and how Hitler killed Yahudis for being who they are and how it’s recognized as the most unfortunate event of the record. I want them to explain how religion played an appearance in most of the disastrous wars in the history, but they won’t. I want to her to learn about Humanism before any other ism but they won’t tell her about Secularism. They’ll teach her religion and how supreme their religion is, but they won’t talk about Communalism because they’ll be too apologetic. She’ll read about the Indus Valley, the Mughals, the Marathas and the British. She’ll ask them about the Partition of India in 1947 and they’ll address it to her as history but she’ll also ask them about the 2002 and 2020 communal riots in the country and they won’t reveal about it. They won’t discuss it to her as history because they’ve been a part of it, their families have been the reason. I want them to tell her they were too busy getting tattoos and piercings done, figuring their lives and love of their lives out and that they were extremely busy plotting their Vegas trip and when she demands them about the Renaissance in India, I wish them to tell her how they’ve been performing their roles by spreading communal hatred through social media stories and electing Fascist leaders. They’ll keep feeding their religion to her so they can use her as a medium against secularism and finally one day when she chooses to not support them any longer, She Will Become The Renaissance.
