In Spite Of Poem by dipak adhya

In spite of

In spite of being a nature-lover
I love to see my own books
Are being sold like hot-cake
And I remain jubilant
Apparently indifferent

In spite of being a zoophilist
I don't like to see the tiger's sleeping
In the cages of the zoo
When I paid for ticket
I'd like to see its growling

In spite of being a rational person
(though someone regards me as intellectual)
I like to comment with deep irony
Of present situation
Our state is...and political system is...
The leaders are only self-centric

Then, Coming back to my cozy room
I try to write poem - scourge, destruction, doom...

Now, it is midnight and feeling sleepy
I don't need to have sleeping pill!
