*THE  HELL OF  AN  **INDIAN **MILITARY*

* *

*Last night as I lay sleeping*

*I died... or* *so**,** did **it **so seem**,*
*Then I went to **the **heaven*
*But only in** my dream*

*Up there St. Peter greeted **me*
*Standing at the Pearly Gate**,*
*He** said, "I must check your data**...*
*Please stand **t**here and wait."*

*He turned and said "Your record*
*Is covered with terrible flaws,*
*On earth I see you rallied*
*For every losing cause."*

*I see that you drank alcohol,*
*smoked and partied too,*
*Fact is, you've done everything*
*A good person should never do.*

*We can't have people like you up here...*
*Throughout your life all you did was hear,*



*You carried out** all** orders without pausing to think.*

*You never asked for instructions** written and signed in** ink.*



*Then** he read the last of my record*


*You stood in isolated places*

*and** there* *you **shivered alone*

*You left your kith* *and kin** and** hearth*

*and** everything at** home*


*You** come from an unresponsive*

*and a **very ungrateful** nation*
*You were** always **denied* *your rights*

*by every Pay Commission*

* *

*The saint held my hand and said,*

*"**Well! do please **Come in** !!!!**"*

*Then he commanded everyone*

*who was there within.*


*"Take him in and treat hi**m well**,*

*He's done his time** enough* *in hell."**  *
