[image: nuclearwar] A lunatic is on the loose All chains are broken No medicine will affect him Electric shocks will make him laugh All stones on him will bounce back A lunatic is on the loose. One hundred and fifty died With an overnight order Millions suffered With an overnight whisper With corporate and media backing We will hear the whisper again A lunatic is on the loose Now we have heard the whisper again That India may change Its no-first use-nuclear policy It is enough for counter lunatics To convert sanity into lunacy To transform the meanings Of `peace and harmony’. A lunatic is on the loose NIMHANS and AIIMS cannot cure Any conscious political lunacy Gods in the sky may move far above Fearing the threat of radiation Unable to watch the blood spill On the bodies of innocent children With breakfasts and dinners Filled with nuclear radiation With cancer and down syndrome In every smell of wind and water. An arrival of the end of generations. A lunatic is on the loose If you try to prevent him They would say: `You are the lunatic!’ Words of sanity Are toilet papers Words of power and money Become temples of worship A lunatic is on the loose All chains are broken No medicine will affect him Electric shocks will make him laugh All stones will bounce back. Seated on top our heads With tonnes of excretion Dripping on our faces and lips With thousands of paid trolls and media Making us believe it is for social good Making us demand: `Give us more’ A lunatic is on the loose ! So, clean your face For the sake of our children And for those who are yet to be born Straighten your spines To spit voices from our hearts To say loud and clear: `Enough is Enough!’ A time will come When sanity will rule What we lose Will become poetry of the future The lost memories Will become text books of history A lunatic is on the loose. And everything that goes up Will collapse with a great thud A time will come Of sanity and wisdom To separate truth from lies It is just a walk Between winter and spring !
