Law of Down- A tribute to Eche Sharmila


Law of Down
Disclaimer: The word “Revision” in the second line in no way means revision of AFSPA ‘1958 since the readers might misunderstood that Eche is fasting for complete uprooting of the law and not just a revision. But here I mean to have another look at the law which defies all human rights.

My Sister had a vision,
To ask for a revision.
Of a draconian law of caution,
Which in Manipur,
Has become the essential laws of motion.

 Like Heisenberg’s principle of uncertainty,
Times flies but no hopes of security,
Of lives without surety,
And smiles that come with no warranty.

But like E=mc2,
Eche= Manipur x Courage2.
Giving hope to the hopeless square,
Twelve years of fasting and still going strong,
Now makes the world wonder,
Where has it gone wrong?

Like Darwin’s theory of evolution,
We have reached this far in this revolution.
The roads full of friction,
And the rulers full of contamination.

BUT

Like the ultimate realization of Higgs Boson particle,
You will shine like the God particle.
And bring alive the 21st article.

A thought always lurked my mind,
Which my bro Rocky had signed,
No longer proud to be an Indian.
I say,
No longer wants to be an Indian.

A tribute to Eche Sharmila-The Iron Lady.
By Yogesh Thangjam.
