I am a Kid

 I am a Kid



 

I am a kid

Just a kid

I don’t know why I was killed

In a war

 

I am a kid

Just a kid

I don’t know what a war is

But I am torn into pieces

 

I am a kid

Just a kid

I don’t know why I should die

Before I live

 

I am a kid

Just a kid

Longing for kisses

But was killed by bullets

 

I am a kid

Just a kid

Who wants to grow

But it is waiting to be buried

 

I am a kid

Just a kid

Who wants to have fun

But was killed by a man with a gun

 

 

I am a kid

Just a kid

Waiting to fly in the sky to see the stars

But I am already on the ground as ashes

 

I am a kid

Just a kid

I have not yet seen a dictionary to understand what a war is

But today, my body is proof of what war is

 

I am a kid

Just a kid

Dying for no fault of mine

In a landmine

 

I am a kid

Just a kid

Like many kids who die

Every day for no fault of ours

Because of the politicians

Who are weapon brokers

Without hearts

Trying to win elections

With their jingoism

 

If peace and love are not a subject

War and death will continue

Where innocent people will die

The rich and elite will party

With our bodies

 

M.L. Narendra Kumar

Listen, Understand and Respond

  Listen, Understand and Respond Most of the time, people listen to respond rather than to understand. By the time the other person finishes speaking, the listener is often already formulating a response. Let’s explore what happens in such situations. While listening, we may be trying to engage our logical brain to recall our memories and creativity for a response, or we may be accessing our emotional brain to defend ourselves against what is being said. For example, if one person talks about ways another could improve, the listener might offer excuses such as a lack of time, resources, or support. Alternatively, they may bring up personal emotions, like health or family issues. These reactions often occur while the other person is still speaking, leading to a decreased understanding and an increased eagerness to defend one’s position. During this type of conversation, the listener may appear restless, exhibiting a lack of eye contact or head nodding. In such interactions, th...
