There’s a mandir,
In the name of Lord Ram.
Located at Ayodhya, his birth place,
Or should we say “supposed” birthplace?
People are frenzied, and happy,
People are rejoicing, and dancing,
Like there’s no tomorrow.
For the moment, they’ve forgotten their sorrow.
I have immense respect for one thing here,
The power of the story-teller.
Stories can move humans like nothing else,
It can build or destroy our entire race.
Be careful of the story you want to believe,
It can make or break you, with its narrative.
If faith gives you love and compassion, great.
If it gives you the urge to assert dominance, it is a threat.
🙏
