The Revolution

The boisterous shrills from the underbellies of my mind repeatedly harps the taboo word - R.E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N. How and when would it happen and how long would it prevail, I do not know! But by any measure, I see it coming. Like a horrendous torrent from the mountains that would break the trunks of any giant tree downhill, it would come gushing. It would try setting right the paths that lie corroded with potholes spread everywhere. It would roar, shake the nation, intimidate governments, destroy the corrupt, free people from their bondage, lift the poor, bring down the ones that have given themselves up to their heart's pride and all the appalling vanity.

When the day comes, the evil would hide themselves in their dark dens. The plague would run amok in the land weeding out the venomous seeds from the grains in the garner. Then would come the wolves in their packs howling, setting fire on all the dens, leaving them rot to death - stained in their own lowly blood. Chaos would go out of control, pillars would fall, tsunamis would violate the coastlines, quakes would swallow the relics of the past. But after all this, there would come the calm and the serene quiet. There would be peace and order and harmony, and certainly - a blessed assurance that would soothe all the troubled hearts with the promise that there would no more be foulplay.

The system badly needs a cleansing. All we need is a band of sincere dextrous hands at work adept at showing love. We need men and women married to kindness. Those who do not fear death, the ones who are called the brave, the exceedingly wise who could effortlessly confound the brains of the machiavellies and the chanakyas, those who speak through their actions more than words, those who are capable of defying the societal laws of gravity that for ages had successfully fizzled out uprisings after uprisings with one powerful weapon called time. We need a phenomenon and those who - with ease - could put together all the equations and work out the massive explosion in real.
