Men Poem by R. Amin

An animal told us yesterday

I should be a man

Shameless insect shouted with shame

'You also defeated us'.

Tropic of Cancer reproved alone

You are an ungrateful nation

Recognizing greatness

You are a symbol of unsuccessful

Eye feels sorrow in silent

Did not see myself ever

However have you seen yourself

Only by myself.

One day an animal used to be man

A man would be an animal.
