Everyday
at night
in the kitchen
a little food
must be kept.
Suppose,
the thief was to come
if he's hungry
doesn't find food
He
might get angry
and cross
and get away
without thieving a thing.
Isn't that shameful for us?.
thief is a human being and he has a right to live but not on the stealing food!

A poem depicting broad vision and humanitarian out look too while creating a humor. Well deserved classic poem of the day.
It's one of the poet's ways of ironical illustrations of the meaninglessness of some of our customary systems. It has a very lasting effect on human minds
Keep food in kitchen Though it's night..... If anyone dies for hungriness For the death you are liable Although the dead is thief or dog...cat... Yes it's shameful
