History is filled with
revolutions to the fuller,
One greedy set,
replacing another.
Communist revolution:
for redistribution of money,
managed in reality,
equal distribution of poverty.
Political revolution:
when power addicted royalty,
got replaced by the power thirsty polity.
The ongoing capitalist revolution:
where power goes from dictatorial states,
to irresponsibly greedy corporates.
Militant Islam,
Naxal movement,
are one more attempt
of the have-not's,
but also of the really uneducated
unaware of history,
blind, violent reactions,
of depressed classes in misery.
A case exists, possibly,
for replacing revolution
with rebellion.
rebellion individually,
against the darkness within.
like night turning,
slowly with no hint,
ever so graciously,
into magnificent daylight.
A new day could ring in,
without a single bullet fired,
but from sharing the fiery
consciousness within.
