A Tiger In The Skin Of Lamb! Poem by Ramesh T A

Herbivorous animals take leaves and fruits as food
And live a calm, silent and gentle life in the forest;
But carnivorous animals hunt other animals and eat
As food and live a wild and ferocious life forever!

Man, evolved from animals, cannot be assessed about
Their character whether one takes vegetarian food
Or non-vegetarian food as in both categories there
Are good, bad and ugly ones according to their status!

However, the class and caste differences they take as
A Very big matter to have domination or subordination
According to their position in the society anywhere
Needing to be dealt with social changes everywhere sure!

Of them, the pseudo purists wearing holy thread and
Eating vegetarian food lie, cheat and do all fraud works
Using their attire of pious fellows as camouflage in the
Society sans shame and sense as tiger in the skin of lamb!
