Stop Seeing Brutality: Resist Poem by Aftab Alam

I always tried to look within,
Within my hidden universe,
I love to read holy verse,
That gives me- energy,
To my naughty mind,

Why should some one call me an Angel?
Where as I am superior to them,
I am HUMAN,
And not He MAN,

I am acting like an human,
Why some one should identify me-
By my caste, creed, race and religion,
I am Indian,
I am Muslim,
What harm in this?

We drink water that earth provides us,
We breathe air that earth keeps it,
All are eating the yield from the earth,
Tell me who eats from the heaven?

Days are gone- for manna and salva,
That Jews they claim-

We all are equal- The offspring of Adam,

Ya, its fact, there was Cane- The criminal,
Then- there was Abel- The sober and sublime,

My purpose to write this - -
Why we are becoming Cane?
Why not Abel?

Ah! I know- fear to be killed,
Lo! Abels are killed by the Canes,
