Do All Warriors Write ?

By Ansh Tiwari

Preface: this poem pays tribute to all the intellectuals of the world, additionally it also questions us – do all warriors fight ?

Some warriors fight  

While some warriors write,  

Some use spears

While some hold their pen tight.  

A lonely man in a heavy battlefield. 

Stares at the enemy,  

His valour unsealed.

Ferocious horses gallop into his sight,  

He holds his sword, preparing to fight.  

Not distinct is the state of a writer,  

He is a true soldier, a brave fighter.

He writes in Agony, He writes in pain,  

From Charles Darwin To Mark Twain.

Jotting hurriedly, they even  write in joy,  

From Jane Eyre to Leo Tolstoy.  

They have a sword filled with ink,  

Voltaire wrote to empower poor living being.

They were wise men who wrote as writers ,

Their thoughts were steel and they were fighters.
