Poison

In the old age days of kings, queens, and chariots ride 
Conquering a neighboring kingdom was a matter of pride 
A few powerful kings had a charismatic personality 
They hardly bothered about the aftermath of the fatality 

The tales of Ramayana and Mahabharata are not merely mythological 
They carry messages for the modern-day people to be logical 
Two characters in each of these tales who hated the heir to the crown 
Manthara and Shakuni, for their revenge, turned the tables upside down 

They were individually sober people, incompetent to enter into combat physically 
Their malafide intentions were unknown to anyone, they were tough mentally 
When the moment stuck, they released the venomous poison in the minds they had trained 
They were patient enough to wait for years to ensure their enemies were brutally pained 

History is proof that neither of these people was wrong in their actions 
They played their role to perfection as they were destined to spread dissatisfaction 
Even in this modern world, can you rely on everyone around you, is a mystery 
The important consideration is whether their intention to pamper you exists without any history
