Distinct Pets Poem by Naveed Akram

Distinct Pets



Let this telescope be of the rats and cats,
Seeing them look like drink and bad habits,
Eroding the soul as we speak like their tongue.

Make them like the white rabbits, cozy in their sleep
And small in size, splendid with their waist,
Like an earl who is rich and ready to sacrifice.

With the red-hot poker, believe in comforts
Inside a race-course, where no housemaids lurk
And the animals are full of themselves as cartwheels.

Let the microscope do its professional understanding
When the housemaids run into a wall,
Infested are the rats and buzzards of this age.

I see on the roof a magpie, and the pattering of ladies
In costumes of silk, madams who wear the air
Like canaries of the old order and free speech.

The meetings are adjourned once they begin,
One maid is a jack-in-the-box when in a hurry,
Interiors of the soul shine with easiness.

The atom has been as wonderland, as the globe,
And all one sees in this tent so complicated,
Where pet animals are tamed to the right distinction.
