Dr.Sandhya Tiwari - MIND MADE MANACLES

Man is born free but in shackles everywhere
Some are physical
Some are psychological
To free oneself from physical
Sometimes is just like a child’s play
But the fetters
From which worse is better
Are difficult to tackle
Because many a times human mind is so fickle
Call it pretense
Or reasons absence
In the name of civility
False show of inner nudity
Where the words like the conscience,
Ethics, conduct, moral and values
Are found in books
Not in hands
But dusted in racks
One rule for others and another for our self
The mind made manacles result in debacles
