As a Nation we are adept at playing a gameWhich has become viral as "Who do we blame?".In theory we are proud of our multiple abilitiesBut who is willing to assume responsibilities?.When the whole dirty floor really needs a mopWe seem interested only in vacuuming the top!.Having lost all touch with paper, pen and inkWe even seem to have forgotten how to think!.Since we don't want complacent minds to strainWe let readymades economize use of our brain.As long as a story has some sensation to rakeWe willingly swallow even the obviously fake!.Experts on TV channels struggling to look wiseExercise just one right:To complain and criticize!.About grassroot issues they seem to have no clueAll are willing to advise what to do,but none to do!.Is anyone today really keen on having on their plateA wholesome, informed, sober, intellectual debate?.To sacrifice solid facts for ephemeral sensationsIs the actual virus that has overwhelmed all Nations….Raju Z.
