I AM HOMELESS!!!


Who made me a misanthrope?
He, who killed my brother for stealing some food
made me a misanthrope!?
He, who forced me to lay nude on the street
made me a misanthrope!?
He, who drew the unseen barriers between us
made me a misanthrope!?
And who is ‘HE’? Who knows!!

His race grew faster and hale...        
He named it Homo sapiens –the consumers of earth.
He cut trees and planted his greed!
He polluted rivers and submerged others need!
With his skill and advent of technology,
Fields, where crops grew, were no more to be seen!
His successors grew in number, ‘He’ became ‘they’…
But, who will provide them shelter? Where?

Congested metropolis and slums grew in number
While ‘the people’ were in peaceful slumber…
No part of the earth remained green…
No rain and no grain to glean….
People died of hunger, People killed their brother,
People made me a misanthrope!
Alas! How disappointing it is!
‘The people’ will demand more space and resources
Both now, are running out!!!

‘I’ will be a homeless creature!
You may wonder who am I…
‘I’ am a fish swimming in a pond, ‘I’ am a bird flying high…
‘I’ stand for every other creature who passes by!
Oh! Let’s not forget,
His race controlled the growth of
Every other species except ‘his’ own…
