'Man'imal Poem by Aamir Joyci

'Man'imal

Rating: 3.5


Deep down! …..a roar…..! !
A fierce tiger's sharp teeth
Sucked the blood of a lovely deer
The tiger ate ‘HIM'

Amidst of advanced civilization
At the centre of sophisticated culture
In India/ America/ Britain/France/Iraq …..!
Some MASKED men shot,
Stabbed, cut, pierced someone….
They didn't eat 'IT'

A bird flung its wings fast
Passed miles with a pinch of food on its beak
A drop of pleasant tear oozed down
When the tiny bird gulped the pinch

A gush of ‘WATER' came from the eye of
The Vicar/ Matron/ Warden/ The Stranger
When he found a newborn baby crying
With uncut placenta and bloody clot

The King of the jungle never asked his
Lioness even when they mated;
What's your clan? Or
What's your status? -

*The King of the earth
Broke the vow of marriage
When he found his female version
Financially imbalanced
Another king wed lawfully
And dumped her
Somewhere in the 'RED STREET'

The queen of the jungle was
Breast feeding the cub
Where the 'real queen'
Pushed a bottle to the mouth
Of her offspring and
Resumed the 'Tele Show'

A group of animals hunted,
Their prey and shared it equally
No one was anxious about the future!
Nor preoccupied with past!

Parties been created, divided
Multi-divided, recreated.
Backbiting, Treachery, Con, Cheat
Assassination…..! ! ! Words of wisdom
For the purest human kind.
One saved billion billions for nothing
And other slithered in the mad hole

A pride of lioness roared
For, they were hunting
A pack of wolves smiled
For, they were mating
An army of frogs yelled
For, they were attacked
A herd of deers caressed
For, they were milking the child
A troop of apes whoo whoo-ed
For, they were in a summit

**He…, the right agent and trustee
Doth cheat when smiles
Shouts, when he laughs
Cries when he grins
Deceives, when he holds friendly hand
'Perfect creation'

The ***'TEN COMMANDMENTS'
Been molested maliciously
Religions become a mere way
To fight, a way of profitable business
Rather than a way of life
Angels who meant to write
Good deeds became ****'Valmiki'

The angel witnessing all this
'PURE HUMANITY' constructed
A new word for God to call his divine sons
'MANimals'



*& ** - According to Qur'an and bible, Man is the agent, trustee and successors of the earth
*** - Ten Commandments of Old Testament
****- The Maharshi who was trapped by termites
