Lalit Shukla Poem
When historical paradigms germinate around you,
When characters of stories, you read, start talking to you,
When you feel crowded by several unanswered questions,
When dualism makes you shaken,
When time starts running faster,
When you experience your immense world,
When you find yourself a witness of world’s evolution,
When your curiosity forces you to awake,
When any imaginary god could not stop you
From questioning the established rules and traditions,
Dear, it is the most beautiful time!
It is the proof that you are alive.

Lalit Shukla Poem
I am walking on a road on a calm night
Cool breeze is rapping trees
Which have fallen deep asleep
Street lights are dozing
Still hung on poles
Moon is playing hide and seek
My shadows turn around
To look at me from
Front – back – left – right
With great perplexity
As wanna ask
Why haven’t I slept yet?
What am I looking for?

Lalit Shukla Poem
The game you think glamorous and wonderful
It is not really, it is dangerous.
Watch these poppets bit carefully
Their dance is quite similar.
Note their reins.
Do you want to know? Why?
Who is behind the scene?
I am afraid,
What will happen to you if you don’t like to be a poppet?
He is clever and you are a consumer for him
And he knows only how to make profit.

Lalit Shukla Poem
They are calling for
a collective fight against terrorism
but they don’t want you to know
hypocrisy in deciding what it is.
They are asking for
a wholehearted support for development
but they don’t like you questioning
for whom and on what cost.
They want you to believe
poverty is a state of mind
there are poor because they want to be
you will become rich if you work hard
They want you to love your nation
and die for it
without thinking whether so called nation loves you or not.
