ARE YOU HUMAN?

Ashamed I am-

Quivering I am-

Speechless I am-

Stupefied I am

Of what has been done,

By sick ones of my creed

That none of the rest of us,

Can ever dare to imagine,

Even in the wildest of our dreams.

Forlorn and fuming I stand,

With my heart bleeding,

For those buds

Whose lives were

Trampled and nipped in bud,

By these spineless ones,

Who unfortunately belong to my own creed.

O mindless ones!

What makes you

Such loath creatures?

Victimising unsuspecting lasses!!

For momentary pleasure?

For machismo?

O! worthless ones!

Seek your psyche:

For you have none!

Ever thought of

What remains thereafter?

A scar for posterity,

A trodden life,

Innocence trampled by your lust

Before they realize

That they are part of this world!

A living death!

So frequently the headlines screams,

Of acts of your likes,

That I squirm in pain n’ long justice be done,

But every punishment

Fails to measure your wrong!

Let’s all rise!

And sensitise not the bud

But the man next to us,

Regardless to class, creed or culture,

For this menace needs to be culled,

As every child deserve

A better life!.
