Wayanad Landslides

Wayanad landslides, How deadliest can be it a natural calamity Striking us dumbfounded and we standing speechless Before the things happening, taking place And feeling outwitted to explain it all, How did it, Is it a man-made crisis Or natural Or it a meteorological consequence, The hamlets deciphered, People missing and killed In landslides, spill of mud and soiled water Falling across, Cascading boulders and it all, How could it be, Unimaginable, unthinkable it is To think of history, geography, Cartography, its topography In terms of human inhabitation, impact of climate change, Encroaches made upon, How can the spill and litter of mass and matter Change the course of a river, How helpless is man before the wrath of Nature Which seems to be so calm and serene sometimes?
