Fated Traps. Poem by Tajudeen Shah

Fated Traps.



There was an Ant leader
Who had a notion strange
To lead his fellow beings
For a long traverse across
The oldest cemetery by the city skirts.
It took them ages many
To complete this stride bizarre.
When their mission was over,
To their utter embarrassment
Could find ways all closed intact
By human sealant, barring their way out!
Man by this end in his observatory
Had his investigations done,
Authentically recorded for history
From the movements,
Communication waves and behavior
Of the Innocent creatures!
Biblical or Quranic reference
On their association with King Solomon
Might have caused this fated-trap!
Man today leaves nothing unexplored,
Though himself trapped in wisdom's cage!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Man makes use of anything and everything to explore still deeper, but he himself is trapped in the cage of wisdom, causing him hostile to life of instincts! .
