Mahatma's Monkeys

No, finding fault with others is not my game

But closing eyes to the evil around

Being blind to the wrongs that abound

Is that what you want me to do?

Yes, I do not speak ill of others

Deliberately do not fling the hurts

But on seeing wrong and unjust

Should I keep my mouth shut?

All that is nasty, critical about others, don’t hear

Hope you mean that by closing ears

To forge my own path and decide

Should I not listen to other’s views?

With the changing times

We need to alter the designs

Truth stands as it is for all times

But to bring that home

Sometimes we need to remodel the ways.
