Are you sure this is the right way?
Are you absolutely sure?
Your right way accuses my right way
Of being totally wrong
Are you sure that you speak the truth?
Are you absolutely sure?
Your truth accuses me of falsehood
Isn’t that the truth?
Are you sure your God is real?
Are you absolutely sure?
Your God calls my God names
And says he’s less Godly
Are you sure you are free?
Are you absolutely sure
Your freedom to speak, breathe and live
Bind so many others with fetters
Isnt what you think is for you right and free
Just another name for Tryranny?

Guess so... !
Question of perspective
poetry:). I love the gehre raaz .. might as well watch the programme also. my kind of stuff
The Raaz is over sigh!! But may as well see it for ourselves
And Yeah! Poetry! Even though I try avoid writing the serious introspective sorts
Wow. Yes isn't freedom only a fantasy-a state of delusion for some, tyranny for some!
So true
This is why empathy and perspective are the 2 most important qualities to aim for, don't you think?
Yes ... specially in these intolerant times.
Came across your blog through a few random clicks, and I am happy I did!
Thank you Australis
Too good and too true!
Tyranny by any other name is tyranny indeed! Double jeopardy- double tyranny!
Yeah! Its like that ....

So mom if you have your way we should stop thinking breathing and talking.
We are our beliefs and thats what makes us human not robots
Very true Ishaan .... but trying to impose our beliefs on another is tyranny
Well expressed Ritu. Indeed they are 'creatures of fantasy'!!
Yeah, life is shades of grey and just any other color one may percieve
I guess the line between being free and being tyrannical is very fine, but those who encroach generally know what they are doing.
Live and let live is happiness for all.\
I feel that way IHM! True masti and essence of life is in Live and let Live
Thought provoking!!
Very right.
And very well put.
