The poem that follows was in part, inspired by the Tamil song, Manidhan Enbavan by P. B. Sreenivas, and certain other events...

Can man trust man?
Offer a place to stay to a person off the street?
Can such an act become a movement
To spread seeds of trust?


Can man kill man?
Not one, but millions because they were different?
Can such an act be called a solution
And be evaluated as a possibility?

Can man become God?
Perform an act of kindness without naming a price?
Can such an act redeem
The many wrongs by his people?
Perform an act of kindness without naming a price?
Can such an act redeem
The many wrongs by his people?
Can man trust man?Offer a place to stay to a person off the street?
Can such an act become a movement
To spread seeds of trust?

Can man reverse the tide?
Fight the flow instead of following it?
Can one such act become a trend
And incite rebellion against the rule of law?
Fight the flow instead of following it?
Can one such act become a trend
And incite rebellion against the rule of law?

Can man kill man?
Not one, but millions because they were different?
Can such an act be called a solution
And be evaluated as a possibility?
