Rain of Protests

It rains for hours
in Delhi​!
The drops,​ young scholars​,
​enlighten all with free will;
​they join forces, 
might above em old men
hurling soggy, blood-stained
papers balls, 
The officers call it Section 144​.
​Sound familiar?​

It rains, relentless,
down on anarchy,
carrying vigour from the sea,
​​free will from the plains
and vision from the hills​;
the unified front,
a weather to break​ barriers
and inhuman statutes.​

The storm ​wash​es​ dirt and grime
from the winter leaves,
​cleanses the leathered
conscience of existence​.​

​It ​washes off masks,
reveals the hidden mob
and their savage tone,​
but let​s​ the blood stains remain​;​
​to ​glow in the glare
​of those ​billion flames
​lit ​for a cause beyond
amendments, acts and atrocity.

It rains for hours
in Delhi!
