Unwritten Absence
Unwritten absence,
Does silence speak?
Does silence fix problems?
A person who wants to conceive a good thought
He " she" can find a quiet place for meditation.
When it comes to ill-treated people ...
speaking out method...helps.
Why am I speaking this?
Why am I speaking that?
Why can I keep silent?
What can be the reason of owning a poetic pen
If I don't share pains of some folks through poetry?
Is there any rule which can condemn a servant God
when he " she" stands to speak for some folks?
Oh! love , loving just
and unjust people
It is happy
so happy to share
this short story
with many folks.
Unwritten absence of love and kindness,
A teen black girl participated at the schools
tournament of Ireland.
Their team reached final,
she was among the best players
who made the team to reach so far.
by surprise, only one black player could not get a medal.
Unwritten absence of happiness as she looked
at the cameraman when he was shooting
her colleagues with medals on their necks
on the podium
in the stadium,
Many people were laughing at her.
Imagine the trauma of this innocent black teenager
who played hard and
ended up being played
due to her skin colour.
Some adults continue to promote racial
discrimination on the face of the World.
Imagine the lesson the tournament organisers taught thousands of white teenagers who were present.
Didn't she have right for medal trophy
as they were winners?
Her parents sued the school for such injustice
The school principal and teachers ended up presenting many excuses.
Unwritten absence of respecting human rights,
as she was not the first black teen to be ill-treated and continue living with trauma. maltreatment always
wreak havoc on the lives of numerous folks.
