Provocation And Dialogue Again And Again! Poem by Ramesh T A

Are not provocation of escalation of violence and
Calling for peace talk like pinching the sleeping
child to cry and singing lullaby to make it sleep?
This is indirect provocation for war till settlement!

How can this be allowed to go on and on forever..?
Will it not be frustrating for peace loving people?
This kind of play is mockery of all dialogues already
Had so ending ever in futility only in the long run!

Paying in the same coin is the best policy it seems;
For, after doing so, a prisoner of war is honourably
Returned with a show of sign for peace talk only like
The Vedal climbing the tree to be brought down again!

How can one make the apple tree of somebody else to be
One's own by provocation and dialogue again and again?
