Sugar Coated Aspirin Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Sugar Coated Aspirin

Rating: 5.0

Give him way and let him do whatever he wants to do,
He is a beast with long teeth and his nails are knives,
We are living in a forest and in a forest might is right,
Let him eat enough even if my innocent deer strives.

Give him your bag and let him snatch your motor cycle,
Give him your car and surrender to him as he is a wolf,
Paint on the glasses of your car long live O Dear Beast
Be obedient to him as for him is all the power and pelf!

Let him overrule all the rules and all the existing laws,
Wait for the natural fire that burns the whole greenery,
Never forget you are living in a forest that has no ethics,
The day is not far away when changed will be whole scenery!

Epidemic is heading towards us slowly but certainly and surely,
You will see him soon disguised as a doctor with a medicine,
Death is slow but a certain fate of the might less animals,
Wait for him and his medicine, a sugar coated bitter aspirin!

A powerful comment on the power politics. When the law of the jungle prevails, no sanity can be expected. Bravo sir!
