DALIT POEMS & SAYINGS

on the evil brahminic systems and brahmins!

 

 

 

AN INTRODUCTION!

 

Tell a Slave is a Slave!

Surely and invariably he will rebel!

For most of times Slaves know not they are Slaves!

Always they only keep enjoying and relishing their Slavery!

They say that had been their lives generations after generations!

That too over the many many millenniums!

Slogging in the fields and mines for the landlords!

Taking just a pittance in return and still be proud and happy!

 

Listen to this!  This is what the landlords, who had raped butchered killed otherwise murdered in cold-blood, and burnt SC&ST Dalits say –

 

We had all along for generations employed them paid them given them grains, fed them and looked after them!  Now they had forgotten all that, to believe in the Govt, go for Education, seek Govt Employment, trust the Parties, run behind the Party Workers, follow the useless Leaders, pin their Hopes on the meaningless Govt Programmes, lean on the fake NGOs, and repose faith in all those stupid Activists!  And, they have turned against us, we who have been feeding them for Generations!  We can’t understand this!  Hence we had to teach them a Lesson!  Discipline them!  Put them in their Places!  They are like our Children!  They are our Responsibility!  And in fact it is our Duty to Discipline them, and bring them back to the right path – their old ways!

 

That is it.  The Landlords want now to reclaim the SCs&STs, bring them back under their total and tight control, and keep them in their fold, as in the good old days!  The old bondage and slavery!

 

Yes, it is true!  Many SC&ST Dalits still toil as Slaves to crude cheap landlords and goons!  They don’t realise their status and slavery.  They don’t know that the World had changed!

 

One need not be surprised or feel shocked by this ignorance, and lack of knowledge or realisation of the World.  After all they are poor rural labourers of backward feudal areas!  But even the educated and employed SC&ST Dalits are not aware of all their Dues and Rights!  In fact the depth of their ignorance is shocking!  If the Dalits’ Knowledge of Dalit Issues are so shallow, what can we say of others understandings of Dalit Problems!  It is for this reason that any writings on Dalit Issues, and Dalit Views have to be in so much of, perhaps what appears to be too detailed!  That includes Dalit Poetry on Dalit Issues and Problems!  Hence, the Prose like Poetry, or Prose rendering of Poetry!  That may not matter, but that also so inevitable!

================================

 

                     

          When brahmins keep telling!

 

What will you do when brahmins today keep telling everyone?

‘Come to ask favours from us only then we will give you food’

They want you to beg and cry to get what you should naturally

Many do go to take their favour for their survival life or growth;

But it’s better to die than beg or go before them asking favours

I am ready to go without food prepared for a starvation death!

 

                                                                                    - a dalit

 

 

              Tools for the brahmins!

 

Symbols those still are vague, languages not understandable,

Always been big useful tools to the brahmins for themselves

Praising speaking and writing about nothing things they don’t

Know and understand but keep on talking endlessly forever

About some useless brahmins wasting times uselessly vainly

Fool peoples of whole world for leading their parasitic lives!

Without ever doing any work productively creating anything.

 

                                                                               - a dalit

 

                 Failing brahmins!

 

The brahmins had given up and forgotten all their own useless gods and goddesses,

Right from their original brahma the big liar, destructive indra, evil manu, saraswathy!

Unwilling to allow the native local people live in peace comforts and develop further

The brahmins destroyed Indus Civilisation Society it script language texts arts crafts

Building technology town planning science technology skills trade business shipping;

 

Leaving gaping large gaps of millenniums Vacuum over the very long long centuries

Erasing every system of maintaining records writings engraving stamping with seals

Replacing it with muddled aryan traditions of confusing interpolatable oral accounts

Mixing vague facts with lies falsehood in creating new gods goddesses mud temples

With new names shapes forms characters like the black corrupt vishnu and lakshmi;

 

For black local native indigenous rulers to keep them under their control influences,

Distinctly separate and away from people reduced to agrarian life or cattle keeping,

Tenaciously clinging to protector of their cows bulls and animals birds homes lands

Farms forests families women children society and so themselves - their Pasupathy

Whom the failing aryan could never sink erase or were able to destroy in this land!

 

In spite of every insult humiliations heaped on their pre-historic Indus Valley Shiva!

Ultimately failing brahmins had to accept the gods and goddesses of native peoples

That dirty dark drunkard drug addict and drum beating snake charmer Parai Shiva!

But minus his original blood thirsty Jungli Dark Kali replaced by the aryan Parvathi,

Fair skinned sharp featured manipulating, as those brahmin women traditionally are!

 

                                                                                                            - a dalit

         

AT BOTTOM!

 

India is too backward to be at bottom,

For trade industry production and also

Governance bureaucracy and politics,

Have all gone into the hands of those,

Who had come from outside borders,

As conquerors or refugees for asylum!

 

All outsiders settled here had grabbed

Everything of value great importance;

Live and go about with lots of venom,

Hatred and much big vested interests,

And outdated beliefs and technology!

Then there is always that brahmanism

 

All the brahmanic false superstitions,

Hatreds foolish teachings prejudices,

Blatant biases and divisive forces only

Drag the country deep into the depths

Of backwardness penury and misery!

To be always at the bottom in World!

 

                                                 - a dalit

 

                    Foreigners the brahmins

 

The brahmins are basically foreigners to this whole sub-continent of India!

With no interests in this Country and the Society People or the Economy!

Interested only in their own Welfare always been co-opting freely with all

Volunteering to foreign invaders in helping to exploit this land and people!

Invited many new invaders to come invade conquer loot ransack and rob,

Betrayed the native rulers chieftains societies people fighting armies Govts

Helped foreigners all their businesses wrecking or ruining whole economy

Hence can’t ever trust any of brahmins walking on this land being biggest

Evils personified deep to innermost cores of their minds bones and blood!

 

                                                                                             - a dalit


       ONE MAY LIKE

 

However much one may like, Tigers won’t eat Grass!

Same way won’t brahmins give up their parasitic lives;

Of cheating manipulations sabotage subversion frauds;

Would sure never work produce food or build homes

Weave clothes clean floor process leather mend soles

Will never soil their hands strain their muscles or bend

Their backs and sweat or shed even a drop of blood!

Hence join Governments at least as clerks or stenos

Computer operators and programmers, if not manage

Castes as senior officials there or courts and judiciary

Or grab Governments through trade unions or politics

To dominate and boss over the whole of the society!

If not and failing to reach there surreptitiously creep in

At least as peons and drivers with their senior officials

Exploit exploit and exploit to take home good salaries

Lots of tips big-bribes or kickbacks and black-money!

 

                                                                   - a dalit

    

                NOTE THAT!

 

It is so surprising and shocking to note that,

Most of our leaders and educated senior -

Officials academicians even some activists,

Particularly those who consider themselves

As hindus and gandhians politicians leaders

Or being Congress believers and followers,

Believe in what all these brahmins had said,

And keep writing to fool and cheat us still!

 

Why should those educated SC&ST Dalits

Still believe in brahmins and their teachings

Books writings sayings advice counselling?

That in spite of suffering seriously very bad

Irreparably in the hands of these brahmins!

When will they learn to wake up and open

Their eyes to understand the scheming evil

Designs and plans of subversive brahmins!

 

                                                - a dalit


Now the brahmins all

 

Sure now the brahmins all are now mortally scared

Yes very scared of democracy and peoples power

Afraid of loosing their grip over power and Govts!

Scared of their foreign origins past root and deeds

So the search frantic claims for identity and friends

Drive in a root erasing all their bad destructive role

From the Indus Valley Harappan Civilisation days!

For destroying every Harappan Town Settlement!

Destruction of whole Harappan Script and People

Skills science technology education culture religion

Ashokan memorabilias great pillars gigantic stupas

Ashokan Edicts Mauryan Dynasty and Buddhism!

Reducing everything ancient and of historic values!

 

                                                       - a dalit

 

 

   Forgive aryan brahmins ..

 

Let us forgive those destructive brahmins

Let us pardon them exploitative brahmins

Let us leave even cruel cunning brahmins

Inheriting their aryan barbaric forefathers

Characteristic of betrayals and treachery

Untrustworthy cruelties criminal nature of

Silent subversions sabotage and cheating

Genes of double-talking split personality,

As after all most of them without distinct

Separate differentiation were born to us,

SC&ST Dalit women grabbed and stole

Throughout history in spite of their castes

Caste System ritual and social exclusion

They introduced to isolate even their Women!

 

                                                - a dalit

 


More Dalit  Sayings…

 

The brahmin hindu movements provide very good comfortable covers

To most criminals cheats thieves dacoits killers rapists and murderers!

 

The manipulating brahmins with all other cheating dominant castes, entrench themselves

In power by exploiting the ignorance poverty hunger and sickness of Weaker Sections!

 

The brahmins are past masters in begging betraying

Cheating forging thieving stealing swindling robbing

And taking away everything good that are all others.

 

Education is used by the brahmins to defeat the people and fail them!

To enslave them as useless people that why the Nation is backward!

With People defeated and failed they hope to lead comfortable lives!

 

Discoveries and inventions are missing in this Country

As brahmins in control strangulate all working classes

Stilling production development new innovations and

Changes in working styles methods and the life styles!

 

The brahmins put their individual interests above the National Good

That cause of all those National Tragedies in the Country throughout

Each individual SC/ST Dalit feels his personal fears more important

Than their own Community Liberation and Children’s Future Needs

 

The brahmins baniyas are like the bears

To live and claim to be only vegetarians

But hesitate not ever to kill mercilessly -

Many lives and people treacherously in

Too cold calculated cruel criminal ways
