Aftermath

The situation got worse
after that devastating curse,

babies yowling in their mother's lap
that mother, who just took her last breathe,

widows moaning on their men's death
invoking their own future ahead,

the Church, the Gurudwara, the temple, the Mosque
all lambasted
only the people's brawl for morsels left to be protested,

those avaricious got the chance
to make the people destitute again,

last, no one was there to hear their weep
because all were crunched by that bitter grief.
