Yet another weekend whizzed past...
Watched a couple of flicks, spent time with friends.
Watched an award-winning pandal, done up in full splendor.
But on the grim side, the newspapers are getting more and more depressing.
Another jerk goes on a killing spree in a school (the third in recent times).
With pedophiles (think Michael Jackson), (mass) murderers like the one above who are rebels without a cause, and who go on butchering sprees, conniving politicos’ sons changing their testaments regularly, and groups masterminding various terrorist activities in our country and yonder, the stories just become more horrific, with each passing day.
Fathers die waiting for justice for their murdered daughters, the speeches and lies just get longer, the plot gets more thickened.
People in power sit smiling beatific through it all.
At such a time, when democracy goes for a toss, many are denied justice, the guilty are allowed to go scot-free, back to their chinking of flute glasses and power lunches, I sit back and think of the charade.
And only three words come to my mind,
It’s a shame.
