Arrack Attack Comments

Trolleys and Tempos are used in cities. Workers carrying loads on their backs and squandering their hard earned money in liquor shops is still going on somewhere. Women are demolishing the liquor shops in Tamil Nadu. The poet has written a poem on the forgotten group of workers. Excellent!

Oh, sad men in their life but they can live better if they read some books after their working! thanks for your poems

Where do you live to write about such tragic events? Is this poem indeed historically significant?

simple words. bigger message. Good

Beautiful poem again from you. Its very positive message... May be the heavy work load, at the end just a penny, so many stomach to feed, tumbled in worries, so may lead to way to arrack..But some do it just for fun also....may be they may change once they get good income, then some positivity in their life will surely come. A dream they can think of something optimistic. Unemployment, under wages..one of the main reasons for this.. Loved the message you wanted to convey it.

really nice one...there is a message for us

I have seen one hooch tragedy during 96 or 97 in Trichy GH, a few people were admitted with loss of vision for treatment.

the message of this poem goops up as a moral for everyone..!

Hi. I understand the message of this poem, but the problem is that you make it too obvious. You literally say what you want to get across - I would hint at it in a fashion that more involves the reader. For example, use more metaphors and imagery to help people to understand without making it too simple. :)

this is a simple but fluent as kaveri

Sympathy in the beginning was what I saw, then it turned to somekind of persuasion to stop drinking liquor. Nicely written with good intentions. Good job. Thanks for inviting me to readyour poem, it's my pleasure.

Misery of downtrodden section of India is painfully pictured here.It is a everyday life of toiling people of our nation. Let us pray god to free this great nation from this menace. Nice sentments and feelings for fellow men.

the poem starts off well with sympathy for the laborers who drink because it gives them some respite from their daily suffering. But will campaigning solve their problems? Wouldn't it be a better idea if we think of ways to provide them alternative means of employment?

POEM HAVING A TRUE MESSAGE......GREAT WORK BROTHER...

Great poem with a powerful message...

I like the way you capture the plight of the poor, their longing to escape the reality of their painful existence through the oblivion of alcohol. A good poem with a message. I am not familiar with the term arrack? Is this a name for an illegal drinking den?

I've seen the news of hooch tragedy from TV.The poem reflects the poet's anger, let the world understand local society.

It such a good poem, it. delivered a profound message to humanity. Please a new poem Tears of soldier and prayer of lad. Thanx

Pretty art piece, I like it

Trying to escape their harsh realities but submerging into a nightmare that is alcohol dependency.Such a sad life.
