'can You See'
You relish the polished white rice,
But how many farmers' deaths behind it lies.
You relish the freedom on our streets,
But how many soldiers sacrifice their lives to reap these.
You relish the freebies offered during pre-election,
But how many politicians resort to "in-resort" operations.
You relish the skyscrapers and high-rise buildings,
But how many wildlife's habitats are shrinking.
You relish the amenities sold at lower prices,
But how many adulterants have effected a major health crisis.
Featured news clouds people's vision,
Shrouding the underlying notion.
Read between the lines,
Understand the "unuttered".
