Public Opinion

A handful of miscreants have branded a billion,
in the court of world public opinion.
It is time to act, acknowledge the fact.
When evil mingles freely in society,
public opinion can serve as a shadow of divinity.

Swiss minarets are but an example,
where parade of naked modesty,
without acts of moral credibility,
accentuated fear and suspicion,
even in people of moderate disposition.

Radiate inner convictions, I say,
To resonate with all of humanity.
Truth, justice and equality
are kernels intricately woven,
by the Maker in the fabric of human genome.
