Are We Civilized Anymore? Comments

No bigger tragedy than this can happen Mam' the basic fundamental unit itself having abberations and forming cracks and upon whom to place hope and build our society? Sad, it is on the rise slowly like a serpent rising its head getting ready poised to attack, unless we act swiftly and justly, what punishment willbefit them - I can not think? It is happening every where but percentage of reporting is supressed. A social evil sleeping in the coner within our homes, you have identified and thrown a light. Terror within the walls of ones own home, you have raised the question well, Are we civilised Anymore? Thought provoking and disturbing poem too. Angel

How to arrest this social degeneration? It is in eduction quality education which is scarcely found in this civilisation so wait till another deliverer.........good poem

the voice of concience that watches over how we behave and makes us feel guilt and shame is not heeded for selfish gains True...though sad being aware to reality. Home is no longer a safer ground to stay coz sometimes crimes are made in our own home such homicide, incest, rape, child abuse and many others...Great write! An eye opener...

Great poem about a certain trgedy. I am so tired of the bias media and the part they play in the encouagement of this terrible trash. Good read my friend. I love your heart and spirit. Loyd

poem is full of sorrows and grief. devaluation of human values are going on. what will be in the future god knows? thanks for reading my poem.'am i insane'.

dear mamtaji... I can feel the pain of all mothers in your poem. It makes me fainthearted... We will have to face this cultural invation Created by globalization which eats away Traditional values of our nation

Ultimately, the generation today Have re-written Civilization as A right to do that one thinks as right It has become a thumb rule To impress one and all Above all, the self. Thank you dear poet, For the concern in this poem. Deeply touched by the truth And it questions me... Where are we heading? Is there a way out?

We must continue to ask these probing questions in this Kaliyug! I would like to title this poem as ANOMIE! -Raj Nandy 30 May 08

This case, hopefully has shaken people up enough to make them think. Thanks for writing a poem on it.

a social issue brought forward in words of concern... truly need is to realize humanity rather then make it big on tv just as a news...

may be true...it shouldn't have happened. but it is just an aberration... could be one in so many millions. and so it is certainly not a 'trend'. well, mamta, your are putting an alert on human mind...a poem addressing human behaviour
