Tit For Tat. Poem by Nabakishore Dash

Tit For Tat.

Rating: 5.0


Give-and -take,
a social exchange process
that strengthens
inter-personal bonding.
Absence of this makes our
associations alienating.

Anticipation of etiquette
from someone entails
reciprocity.
Deviation from it
may bring into existence
hostility.

Cruel and corrosive words
from any body
wreck my heart and mind.
Such words must be
saddening others equally,
should ever be brushed aside
and declined to
keep our connections refined.
