Nation on the grave (Poem)

Nepal, always staggering under debt
lagging far behind, lined up in poverty line
country’s economy in pitiful condition
mostly hindered by terror and tension

millions of starving and frightened faces
without basic necessities, still live in the dark age
deprived areas, people in down and out situation
crying for mercy over their pathetic condition

corruption everywhere rooted down in society
everyplace in these days is rife with bribery
from officers to leaders, they lost their morality
they rather amass the wealth themselves in reality

no hope for opportunities and lack of employment
nation’s youth migrating toward alien nation
hand-to-mouth situation for most of the people
pipe distance for their health and education

104 years of Rana’s autocracy and brutality
liberation of country on 2007 B.S. after a century
neither country prospered during the Shah dynasty
nor after the decades from 2046 B.S. democracy

decade and more of people’s war, thousands lives lost
and even more severely disabled in the aftermath of the war
thousands women widowed and children orphaned
although war settled, history mourns for what have happened

political chaos worsening day by day affecting whole nation
daily life often obstructed with strikes and violence
conspiracies everywhere for the power to reign again
fight for human rights but why fight merely on race, culture and religion ?
