1. A Wolf and A Lamb (Old Story)

A lamb was drinking water down a stream
A wolf was drinking water upward the same,
So saliva of the wolf too, could have been drunk by the lamb.
However, it was to wolf the anger came.
The wolf asked, asserting his authority,

„How can I drink water, when you stir the stream?‟
The lamb replied thinking, speaking truth did no harm.
„I drink water down the stream Your Excellency!
So it cannot happen I make the water you drink dirty.‟
The wolf now, began to work on its motive,

Showed genuine emotion by being abusive,
„I was correct in my thinking,
Even with noble animals you small dare arguing-
Forgetting, this is the jungle wherein
This noble animal has powers of taking decision.’
‘For this violation, as punishment,

You will be killed forthright;
And as charges for this case hearing

And also to protect my right to exist,
I eat your meat.‟
Thus he partook the lamb‟s „sovereignty‟,

Gobbled down the lamb, displaying,
Yet another time of his jollity.
Point of importance to learn from this story,

The wolf was better than humans pretending holy;
Did not waste time to use noble terms only,
Declared his intention, and acted on it boldly.
2. The Wolf and The Lamb (Modern Story)

Once there was a wolf
With bloodstains in its mouth
He was drinking water up a stream.
Then came this lamb.
Fearing there was wolf up stream,
He chose to drink water down the same.
However, the wolf got angry;

Not necessarily for what was seen,
But because he was hungry;
He thought,
How dare he drink water
From the same stream I drink?
Similar to modern human when he thinks,

‘How dare he defeat terrorism
Being a leader of a small nation,
And it is from us those terrorists buy weapons
In addition to such effrontery,

He intends to make prosperous his country,
Disregarding the fact, once it was our colony!
If they are allowed to be prosperous like that,
Will not values go down
Of our dollars, euros and pounds?”
The wolf growled and asked,

‘How dare you stir the water,
When I drink from same?
Which, too, is like that modern human‟s,
‘How dare you violate human rights
In your country, of those helpless, innocent minorities?
They were allowed so to settle down there by us;
Remember, they have their relations with us;
Who, when they are asked, give us their votes!.

They weep here because you deny their language rights!’
How they shed tears

When they do not get their letters
In their mother tongues!
+ + + +
Hardly did he have such concern for minorities

It was only that, humans are used to scheming as such!
The lamb, confused as to what could happen next,

Thought, it was better he presents his point;
Since most talk of wolf was of animal rights
He thought, the wolf considers when he talked his rights.
‘Your Excellency, I drink water down the stream
Everybody knows, water upward never flows,
So my drinking, cannot affect yours!’
Expected opportunity now the wolf got,

„You raise the point I arrive at!
You are disrespectful in your talk,
Towards a powerful animal with noble thought;
Who is blessed with powers of Almighty
To protect animal rights, with sympathy and empathy.
So you ought to be punished for this audacity!”
Explained he later to his allies gathered

His position, which they all approved!
‘And as my cost for the case justifiably hearing
I ate him; exercising also, my right to live by meat alone’
Such behaviour resembles modern human leader

Interpreting his ways of established order;
This is how he explains later to his allies;
‘When at war his enemies he killed,
Even when they white flags waved;
He also killed the spouse of enemy leader
At a time poor she in desperation and tear;
So it is cleat as that, to be leader he is not fit,

He will be punished; to his people our leader we appoint.’
Nobody anywhere is not, to decide he is right or not!
+ + + + +
However, some lamb like men

Now ask this question,
‘Is it because people did not white flags wave,

Millions made to die , without time even to make a sigh
By dropping worst possible weapon on them,
When those people, only to their daily chores attending?’
To which massacre,
Even now,
Victimized country expected to apologise!
Such is how things happen

In animal world and that of human
No one to study, no one to action take;
No one to investigate, no one to mediate!
With such wolf logic, no lamb is safe!
Thus learn you all

Most noble of all
Make profits by exploiting the small.

3. What use is Sovereignty?

Tell me my friends,
Using the sanity left with you,
When a country because it is big,
Creates in a neighbouring country, an army of terrorists,
Against its majority community‟s interests,
Sneering at their long, unique history:
Surviving foreign attacks, too many;
What use is the term sovereignty there?
Ought it be of no meaning, remaining simply as an idea?
Need it be a term alone, to be abused by powers strong,
As it was that really happened
Displaying somebody‟s thinking awkward!
Tell me my friends,
If there is sanity left with you;
When a country because it is big
Violates the air space of a country small
And drops parippu* on it from air, * a food item: dhal or lentils
Pretending to be of assistance to an immigrant community there,
When there really was no such need;
(The real need, geographical expansion cleverly concealed),
What use is sovereignty there?
Citizens there helpless, because the intruder was BIG

Felt shocked with the „drop‟!
They were amazed and ashamed,
Nothing could they do, so at sky they gaped;
Acting fowl pretending seeing nothing
When Big Bad Wolf grabs a chick from their pen-.
Because they were small.
They only accused their leaders,

So ready to have them betrayed.
Gathered they in streets in pockets, and some in groups

To express their shock, also to think what they could;
To win or lose, to die or live, to fight and die some talked,
Was better than flight; but only one, hit nail right on head;
Who was, by shameless rulers, immediately arrested!
Imperial powers everywhere, pretended seeing nothing

Because the intruder was BIG; and to them it affected not!
They wanted to lose nothing.
They knew nothing
Would they gain,
With such interfering-
Even if it is justice establishing!
Rulers because they were thuppahis* * People in a country or a

Threw tear gas at groups and shot some dead! community who desire to adapt to
So what use is the term „sovereignty‟ to them, the cultures of powerful
When they are treated so damned? countries through a feeling
Need it only be an ideal to them, of inferiority on their presence
With no value in it as being practical?
Tell me my friends, with sanity left with you ,

If such sanity prevails to think noble,
-No, this is not for those ignoble-
As descendants of the thinking of The Buddha,
If he doesn‟t fit, then one like Gandhi, Mahathma,
Or, any great men lived, as you think they are beloved;
When a country because it is big,
Executes a forceful solution on a neighbouring community small,
To a problem they themselves fed and fanned-
Favouring a selected immigrant community,
Ignoring the rights of it‟s majority community;
Then what use is sovereignty to them,
Notion of which small communities need not claim?
When no judge is there to give a ruling,

Except the Big Bad Wolf always around roaming;
Who becomes a nuisance, when conflicts break in;
The wolf cubs and fox cubs as judges masquerading,
Pretending to use logic and reason mixed with sympathies all;

Not knowing,
In innermost conscience they have them in opposites!
To such small country, what use is „sovereignty‟?
Wasn‟t it to use powers non violent

Gandhi Mahathma taught?
Wasn‟t it Love, Kindness and Empathy
The Emperor Asoka spread ?
Wasn‟t it BY WHOSE THINKING ONLY that country became great?
Wasn‟t it because such noble people
They were included in map of civilised?
And not by those who did parippu drops,
Humiliating a civilized nation existed for centuries;
Nor by those who destroyed their own universities ?
Tel me my friend,
Using the sanity to pause and think;
When a nation because it is BIG
Dictates terms on small neighbouring nation;
And if those small nations unite to retaliate,
Assisting minorities WITHIN THAT BIG COUNTRY ITSELF,
Displaying tit for tat,
Helping finally
Those minorities form different nations
Within itself;
By doing which, that country will no longer be big!
So that, it becomes peaceful?
When such actions taken collective,

Need it be considered aggressive?
After such an attempt,
Can small nations and minorities happily survive?

4. Where have all the Colonialists Gone?

[A follow-up on Peter Seeger‟s song „Where have all the Flowers
Gone?‟]
When will they ever learn?

When will they ever learn?
Not to interfere in other countries

Fanning ethnic tensions after setting fires;
Making social groups hate one another,
Blocking natural assimilation processes in them;
Pretending to possess noble qualities,
Killing genuine leaders of selected places;
Raising to top
Traitors with low wits but high ambitions,
Scheming, cheating, pretending, lying,
Organizing rallies with morons leading-
Morons of some even having doctorates;
And with them marching;
Ever ready with arms supplying,
Lavishly issuing them though at exorbitant prices,
With channels threes and fours ever busy scheming,
And NGOs bent on hell,
Preaching humanity as guided by Devil.
All these to live in luxury,

While others ought to live in misery.
Raising values of Dollars Euros and Pounds
While lowering to lowest
Values of all rest!
Where have all father colonialists gone?

Gone to graveyards everyone,
Gone to graveyards everyone,

Like everyone else would go.
Where have all neo- colonialists gone?

They haven‟t gone anywhere my dear
They haven‟t gone anywhere.
Now it is they who live with us
They live with us everyone
Playing hell with orders and everything.

5. To: The Peace-loving, Civilized, Democrat Modern:

We know that
You do not exist
In literal terms
Hence these words
To dissolve in space!
May be these words reach Heaven

If such a Place there is now unknown,
And there taken into consideration
Such Heaven alone can take action.
A „Peace-loving Democrat‟ in modern world represents

Aggression, Despotism, Exploitation, Cunningness,
Scheming, Pretending, Cheating, Ethno centredness;
The best of him cling to them ideals as sacred,
Absence of them is absence of ideals beloved!
It is because of them among themselves they are proud!
Accordingly, to take actions,
An International Policeman by themselves they appoint
Position of which all unanimously approved!
In short;
A „Peace-loving Democrat‟ in modern world
Is modern alright, but has nothing of civilized!
However when using words

Those idealistic notions in opposites are seen!
They are of,
Peace and Harmony, Democracy and Humanity,
Cooperation, Co-existence, Compassion and Reconciliation!
Violations in war games of rules humane,

Are in his possession, supervised by him alone;
When found no such violation in his enemy,
Microscopic points he finds in hysterical searches of history;
Or else he builds them up,
And expands them to their extremes.
That‟s how he comes out with stories vague,
To which evidence cannot be traced
Having no evidence as such,
About which he is not bothered.
So is he active, editing, creating pictures and films,

Framing and developing new sensitive stories;
And realizing his aim, weakening selected nations,
Ignoring objections,
He shows his stories to allies ready to believe,
But passive, because less weaponry powers they have.
Explains he to them, „See, they have done these and these;
Evil are they this much, so they deserve punishments!‟;
Though he believes his allies are devoted to his concerns,
None of them is; it is on his dollars all focus!
He knows it well,
Key to justice and fairplay finally can be his will,
At gunpoint; as it ought to be so his allies agreed;
And institutions international always ready behind,
Wagging their tails whenever they hear his command.
As regards judgements, he sets standards amusing

Amusing to him though, maniac to observers behind scene.
He knows it well, everybody knows his motives hidden
But of such awareness others have, he does not show concern.
By all these he believes he gains

His rightful place, as he envisions
Dominance over others
For power, comfort and luxuries.
That‟s how goes the World Order

As led by this „Modern Democratic Leader‟!
+ + + +
Among his followers, are few ludicrous Sinhala men

Mistakenly believing it is from his roots they are evolving.
However, to him they are of worth nothing!
They do not know that, but when his name heard,
Their begins the ceaseless wagging of tails – * Karl marx
Even when they talk of the doctrine of Marx*!
Some of whom living there in America or Canada-
When amongst their own, „The Thuppahis‟* they are! *People in a country or a
community who desire to adapt to
When those Sinhalese pretend to be intellectuals the cultures of powerful
Fossilised slogans picked from modern philosophies countries through a feeling
Spring forth from their mouths of inferiority in the
Like frogs croaking in polluted ponds! presence of them.
They polish them up when they talk .
Use proper accent and to pretend noble looks.
Those who study such utterances they make

See them as some abnormal thoughts.
Because they lack having roots for support,

+ + + +
The one world of this Democrat Modern originated

With a tribal onslaught by which once they were bombarded-
Wars of tribalism in conflict with awakening nationalism
Making Christian Europe be packs of wolves
Waging wars that became wars for cross.
Attackers fought with reasoning blind
Moved with emotions of fear and aggression!
Determined to slay by sword,
Those unwilling to believe their way of God.
It was a Creator God that led them as they believed,
Such Creator thus advocating, winning not by Love but by dread.
Then Pope in Rome divided the world to two,

As one to Spaniards and other to Portuguese;
The former succeeded converting their half
And blessed with a huge profit of treasure with gold.
There it is seen origin of a Modern Nation
Making Europe proud to own Wealths of Nations
Everybody is to forget now,

How they did this achieve.
No reconciliation processes,
No apologies to victims,
Because the involved were
The Spanish, the French and English.
Who still at one another their heads they nod,
When smells of conflicts they sense around.
They asked some nuns of Sun Faith to convert to theirs,

By asking so they believed, they were doing good.
Though by such conversions, nothing by no one gained.
As natural response the nuns refused!
May be they didn‟t know the enemy was so armed,

It was the most terrible weapon they possessed!
Few minutes went;

The nuns were raped; their buildings destroyed
By the noble Cannon Guns; those they cleverly used.
Here and there the soldiers ran, with glee on their faces;
Grabbed the nuns in shock and pain, and most covetous, their treasures;
Then left the nuns and carried back treasures;
Maybe some nuns too, to please their commanders.
All these for the dream, making their new nation
Making everyone fear their gun and their religion.
Some nuns left to die, and never ever to observe,
Their „right to believe‟ the way they wanted to believe!
Even the smoke disappeared only after few minutes,

Maybe to keep everything in a hush –
In such a hurry! Their Creator may have watched all those
From up there in His Abode, but did nothing; may be because
Satan, His enemy, was there below with them.
Question remains now, who was to them supportive,
If it is Satan, then He is in modern nations alive-
Let‟s worship Him, because He alone is active!
Thus annihilated ages of existence of a culture,

And traces of humanity, those that left over!
Similar events of which in Hiroshima and Nagasaki later.

Few minutes to annihilate.
And to yell, “Victory!
They did not show white flags,
So in doing this we are right!”
Rules of war and interpretations as they pleased.
And punishments to victims with all possible terms
To ethnocentric advantages; no, not to make peace;
No, never for a noble UNO of Peace!
They apologized to Galileo

For trying to kill him for disclosing a fact,
May be because he too was European,
But no one to apologize to Incas, Aztecs and Mayan,
Or to offer them even now what they can,
So they cover up for sins tempted to involve in!
Still later, too, it happened, now in Vietnam,

Showing, they learn nothing from what did happen; H

o
The need was so high to do such dropping!

Skins of children burning, but no one showing concern.
Because the focus of attention,
Was the noble intention,
To protect democracy,
Custodianship of which as God given.
The weapons, too frightening, as some agreed,
However, it was to preserve democracy they were used;
So they were right!
While these happening their own ones crying,

„Where have all the flowers gone, gone to graveyards everyone!‟
Destroying the Mayans, Incas and Aztecs,

They thought doors opened to heaven in those areas
Of Mayans, Incas and Aztecs now,
Few traces as people left somehow,
About whose rights for self determination-
Their joys, their aspirations,
No processes of reconciliation!
Giving them powers of devolution even as pretension
-As the way it generally is, „even as pretensions‟-
No one of them is concerned; even now!
+ + +
Where are their pioneers now?

Are they being blessed by God, as they believed?
Believing he was doing some good

One priest of them from a victim leader asked,
‘Convert to our faith now, then you end up in Heaven,
Otherwise it is hell you go; whichever the way it will happen,
You will be in fire, which fire is ready for your burning!’
‘I would go to Heaven’ the leader responded,

While adding a question too!
‘Is it Spanish the heaven too is dominating?’
‘Of course, it is with Spanish the heaven is full,

Because the Creator takes them all!
It is Him they love, Him they serve and to Him they are loyal,
Because of such devotion, it is Spanish God would call.’
Response to this, may be one to be ashamed,

But it was not so to priest, because he thought,
Everything he did, as planned by Almighty God.
‘If it is Spanish go to heaven, then I prefer hell;
Why should I go to God whose company is evil?;

Who grab our wealth, change our faiths and continue us torturing,
Using force they cannot be faced,
So why should with them relationships be made
Even if it is in Heaven?’
The Spanish could torture them even in Heaven,

Because when it is here it is what they have done.
Could one resist re-doing what had been doing
Even in the Ideal Place, that is in Heaven?
That victimized leader was burnt to death

In the name of spreading yet another faith!
+ + + +
Instances are seen now

Of their nearing ideals noble,
Although they discarded them earlier as futile,
As seen in this concern shown to Chief Seattle.
Instead of his land forcefully grabbed
They chose to be reasonable by being somewhat kind.
Such kindness about which they are now proud;
Considering, in evolutionary thinking it is a turn dignified;
Instead of killing, with money the victims been offered!
Response of Seattle was not what they thought

„The Land we live, its leader has no right to sell,
But what shall I do? If I refuse it to sell
You grab with your gun, no doubt you will!’
How far he was correct, we do not know
But let the world be happy from what was seen,
Using words the victims shown concern,
Offering money, in place of hellish fire burning!
Similar to this in yet another land,

This time it was Dutch, and the land was an island,
Called Sinhale, where a part already occupied
By ancestors of the same „modern democrat‟ ,
In attempts of spreading their religion and trade.
As it was to them, The Pope previously sanctioned.
It was bottles of whisky the king was offered

As presents, and the king was to be befriended!
Such king could have to them easily told,
„I don’t sell my land,
For bottles of whisky or few dollars!
And when I don’t do so -
The land will be attempted

By you to be forcefully grabbed!‟
+ + + + +
An eleven year boy who was heir to a throne

Was plotted to write his kingdom in a will
To another ancestor king of this „democrat modern‟
In those early days;
Foreign king of whom and this boy,
Never one another they met-
They lived thousands of miles apart!
To celebrate getting hold of the boy
Local temples of worship they began to destroy!
There, too, it was spices and religion the focus was on
To amass wealth and to make a Nation Modern.
No one to hear the case at that time,

How child boy writing his kingdom to king unseen
Without ministers, elders and people common,
Especially when no such law there in that region!
Only acceptable law therein,

They still it uphold, by this „Democrats Modern‟,
Most acceptable and most esteemed,
The law of, ‘Might is right’.
+ + + +
Countless such works of this Democrat Modern

Continued everywhere under the same heaven!
One such group, unable to find place to build their church,
Though country had villages with space so much;
They built it at doorstep,
Of the most sacred temple people worshipped
This church is still there, anyone could see,
Though pioneers who did so, compelled to flee.
They did so to safeguard what they called,

The „Right to Believe‟!
Right to act on which,
To themselves they reserve;
Additional roles too played therein,
Its proponent, its violator,
And its judge when it is in such violation!
Temple authorities considered racists primitive,
So not allowed to defy,
At which point, usual distortions Thuppahis* there gave;
Showing they, to them, were supportive, * People in a country or a

Happy of harm done to roots they didn‟t have. community who desire to
Later as additional support, adapt to thinking and
Too many mosques too began to be built round it! cultures of powerful countries
through feeling of inferiority
Accepted norm there was „Might is right‟; in their presence
Anything they wished, then it was right!
+ + + +
Now have you seen how

This democrat modern throughout active
Day by day became he powerful
Enjoyed his fruits than others all
Died, too, in some attempts

Some of his people;
Failed, too, as at times in Sinhale!
Because the Sinhalese fought!
In Mulleriya, one whole army destroyed,
And more in other battles!
Finally had he to leave
As acceptance of some defeat
Though as one global tribe
They could not be vanquished!
Now surviving as,
The Neo-colonialist!
However,
Upon his leaving,
Another of his kind began to do same
When in Sinhale
Such entrance,
To assist people as declared,
To save the country
From a cruel Macbeth‟s tyranny
Though such assistance,
Was not the need of its citizen.
The agreement made to effect they dishonoured

After capturing; as strategy everywhere they used!
Agreements words
Values limited to documents
Honouring them,
Not necessary for human,
As held by these democrats.
The logic therein
Priority has to be only on
Democracy preserving!
After capturing the country

They destroyed the Sinhale peasantry
People, houses, land, cattle.
In 1818, 1848, 1915
Thus achieved the target
Assisting a country when people didn‟t want!
Minorities today were not with natives

Because they were not there then
It was later only they were brought
To be slavish workers of same „democrats‟;
Because later they thought

Best lessons to be taught
To natives who fought
Allowing immigrants beyond coast
Settle them there,
Giving powers them there.
Raising them everywhere
So natives be nowhere.
Their plans worked!
They did all that
Perhaps because they were the fittest!
Those immigrants settled down

In thousands, later in million
In North, East and province Central,
Happy to expand homeland geographical
Claiming new areas as theirs
Lived there for non-numerable years.
Coloured the areas in world maps*, * in th 1940’s, in
As shown in democrat‟s atlases! Phillips’ World World Atlas,
Thus deconstruction for construction it was shown under
Of history, creating a community of aggression. demography of Sri Lanka
(then Ceylon) Tamils as
Democrats used them like puppets dominating northern area
Made them work, beyond about Matale town in
Some became converts Central Province,
Pretended helping which is not factual,
Encouraged to carve out areas for them
Obstructed in their assimilation
Now manipulated by their homeland,

This state in India.
With intention,
They could also separate,
Their Original Land,

The Indian state.
Lucky for them now,

Have two countries of their own,
Not dominated by Hindi speaking northern,
Nor by Sinhalese in southern.
By the grace of the Democrat Modern!
Local thuppahis lost roots

Nurturing their neurotic views.
Assisted the immigrants!
Such assistance by them,
Proportionate to magnitude of perversion,
Proportionate also,
To dollars at them thrown.
+ + + +
Now they intervene like with this Lady * Nadhan , * [in 2013]
She is the Supreme Schemer for Rights Human
One of whom, who thinks she has a right
To be concerned with Human Rights
Of immigrants there, ignoring,
Natives that inhabited the nation,
Those immigrants not involved in fights

In 1818, 1848 and 1915
With Democrat Modern,
Also not involved
In fights in 1971 and 1989 with Thuppahis,
+ + + +
Naadhan dares not question, plight of the Red Indian

When nothing left for them, cultures, lands and treasures,
Only option, being docile English speaking Christian.
She is not concerned why they cannot have,
Their areas of power as devolution,
As she wants her community
To have such status special;
With „Democrat Modern‟ standing her behind.
Not that he loves to see
Immigrants to have powers free,
It is chaos by which he profits gain
Making India to later gain
A regret, a failure of feeling
For voting with them for the resolution .
Neither is she concerned with Black Africans of USA,
Why not give them powers of devolution

And allowed to rule their areas as their own?
So that Obama leads black men,
And not dominate those poor white men?
Insane are they, over failure to save Prabhakaran

From innocent indulgences in massacres Sinhalese in
Photographs of which they now display
As made by victims themselves.
To all which,
Democrat Modern propagandist supports.
Such is the scheming ability of the Democrat modern!
+ + +
Their genetic lineage now sits in assemblies

Like this one now in Geneva*, * [ This poem was originally written in February/March 2013]
Like foxes or wolves
Ganging round when arising conflicts
Identifying hot spots,
Discussing framed stories
Using best of words,
To entice lambs, chicken and kids.
With agendas wicked,
Though sugared by terms enlightened,
As preached in past
By the wise men of old.
Supporting one another raising hands

Knowing well, motives are impious.
After which, pick up the thrown bones,
Gnaw them with repressed smiles.
+ + + +
Hypocrisy unashamed in exhibiting!

Yes, they are hypocrites they know that!
They need not be ashamed
To use chaos or create chaos
Display wolfian* thinking in all that‟s done. * adjective formed from „wolf‟
Sentiments higher and noble,

Sentiments of religious ideal,
When they see, they take them and use.
Use those extractions of nobility,
They have killed too many
Expressing they display the Creator‟s such ability!
+ + +
Today,
It is missiles, atom bombs and napalms,
In areas chosen, with support of thuppahis local.
Manipulating evil, among minorities;
At them throwing dollars and pounds;
Sending armies
Destroying countries of oil to pieces
While expressing humane sentiments.
Pretending to uphold
Peace, democracy, freedom of expression;
As if it is God who command them
To inculcate them in man;
It is „he‟ whom He has chosen.
If it is God who commanded so,

May be it is same God who tells them confidently-
- Through an angel like Gabriel -
They can do the opposites when in action.
True,
Needleless to delve in to this history,
It is continuation of their genetic urge
That makes us worry
Where do thats leads
If this is how things happen?
With no order in presence of this „Democrat Modern‟!
So we addressed to him, may be he now realizes

Or let all these words disappear as nothing is in space.

Poems on the International Scene 2013 – Rathnapala Subasinghe –1 August 2018 Page 1 of 25

1. A Wolf and A Lamb (Old Story)

The wolf asked, asserting his authority,

The wolf now, began to work on its motive,

‘For this violation, as punishment,

And as charges for this case hearing

Thus he partook the lamb‟s „sovereignty‟,

Point of importance to learn from this story,

2. The Wolf and The Lamb (Modern Story)

However, the wolf got angry;

Similar to modern human when he thinks,

In addition to such effrontery,

The wolf growled and asked,

Who, when they are asked, give us their votes!.

How they shed tears

Hardly did he have such concern for minorities

The lamb, confused as to what could happen next,

Expected opportunity now the wolf got,

Explained he later to his allies gathered

Such behaviour resembles modern human leader

So it is cleat as that, to be leader he is not fit,

Nobody anywhere is not, to decide he is right or not!

However, some lamb like men

3. What use is Sovereignty?

Citizens there helpless, because the intruder was BIG

They only accused their leaders,

Gathered they in streets in pockets, and some in groups

Imperial powers everywhere, pretended seeing nothing

Rulers because they were thuppahis* * People in a country or a

Tell me my friends, with sanity left with you ,

When no judge is there to give a ruling,

Pretending to use logic and reason mixed with sympathies all;

To such small country, what use is „sovereignty‟?

When such actions taken collective,

4. Where have all the Colonialists Gone?

When will they ever learn?

Not to interfere in other countries

All these to live in luxury,

Where have all father colonialists gone?

Gone to graveyards everyone,

Where have all neo- colonialists gone?

5. To: The Peace-loving, Civilized, Democrat Modern:

May be these words reach Heaven

A „Peace-loving Democrat‟ in modern world represents

However when using words

Violations in war games of rules humane,

So is he active, editing, creating pictures and films,

As regards judgements, he sets standards amusing

By all these he believes he gains

That‟s how goes the World Order

Among his followers, are few ludicrous Sinhala men

Those who study such utterances they make

The one world of this Democrat Modern originated

Then Pope in Rome divided the world to two,

Everybody is to forget now,

They asked some nuns of Sun Faith to convert to theirs,

May be they didn‟t know the enemy was so armed,

Few minutes went;

Even the smoke disappeared only after few minutes,

Thus annihilated ages of existence of a culture,
