If Development Means

The following expression is the personal thought of the author. You have every right to disagree with her.

What is development?
Is it big wide roads.
full of big-flashy cars
where ever you go
Or is it
tall glassy buildings
made of concrete
so high that
it might touch the sky.

What is development?
Is it the chaos,
the sudden population growth
with people migrating from god knows where
everyday, every minute, every second.
But if this is what development means
then sorry I don't need development
just keep it to yourself
I don't want development.

If Development means
cutting down trees after trees
branches after branches
and leaf after leaf
to widened the road
or to make a free space
then I don't need development.

If Development means
tearing the old beautiful houses down
walls after walls
and bricks after bricks
the wooden carved windows
and beautiful doors
to build a tall glassy building
then I don't need development.

If Development means
my memory going blur
because I can't relate to
the scenery that has changed
all of sudden in past few days

If development means
destroying everything old
the temples, the buildings and the roads
destroying the culture, the history
and the civilization I have ever known
then no sir, I don't need Development
I don't want Development.
Why don't you keep it to yourself?
