Rebirth.

By Pranjli Chaturvedi

If the concept of rebirth exists, may all the elites - capitalists, politicians, and celebrities - be born in a war-zone country in their next life, and witness people with a huge platform either remain silent on their suffering or laugh when someone tries raising awareness. 

May they see their children in the same condition as the people in conflicted areas see their kids, and cry for every ounce of empathy they failed to serve in this life. 

If the concept of rebirth exists, then may all the heartless and ruthless people be born as voiceless and innocent animals in their next life, and get shoved inside claustrophobic cages merely for existing peacefully and for taking some space on the planet that belongs to them much more than it does to human beings, and nobody sees the pain in their eyes or hear their cries. 

If the concept of rebirth exists, may justice be served to every innocent and kind soul who lost the battle of inhumanity and catastrophes. 

May justice be served to them in their next life, if not in this one. 

May they rest in soft beds and eat delicious food while the elites burn down to ashes. 

May they run on soft grass and inhale fresh air while the elites suffocate. 

May the spirits deliver justice, for humans have failed.
