Being Patriotic... It's Such a Burden

So what I am a terrorist. I just kill innocent people.

Why such hoopla over these common men?

Who are they?

Do the really matter?

India has 1.25 billion people to become slaves of large socio-economic wheels and get crushed.

Is it only because of sensational news headlines?

It never makes it a news that 21,000 children died every day in 2013 on our planet.

Hunger. Poverty. That's so boring. It doesn't give us a patriotic hard on.

Some fucker with a gun killing few hundreds people. It's a new way, an entertaining way to kill people.

It makes us patriotic.

So wait for new headlines of rape or terror attack to make you feel patriotic.

Go on candle march. Sit for hunger strike.

When the issue at hand fizzles out, so should your patriotism.

Why carry this burden of being patriotic every moment of your life?

After all you have enough burden in your life.
