History Is All About Kings
History Is All About Kings
History is all about kings and kingdoms
Lords and Fiefdoms
Power flows from the barrel of Gun
The king stands tall
Subjects are only subjugated supplements
King’s Story is written in annals of History
For generations to look up for the continuity and change
Sometimes new set of victors set in
Entire History of a period and persons gets rewritten
Heroes become villains
Villains get the crowning glory
In all these, poor common man
Is just a pawn in the big Chess Game
Like in Chess Board, It can only move straight
Only when there is a free square in front
His life is an endless struggle to find this space
In Democracy it is no better
Other than few seconds of fame
While casting vote
He is a perennially forgotten man
A man lost in his daily ordeal
Of only yesterday and today
And the tomorrow of dreams
That never ever came
