The Descendants.. Poem by Veeraiyah Subbulakshmi

The Descendants..



Some people have the hammers for the hands,
And they knock each head with a thud,
To cultivate the teary dews on the flowery face,
These are the descendants of the wood cutters.

Some people have the nail clippers for the fingers,
To pinch the ears, nose, butts, stomach and the limbs,
To scratch the non existing ignorance from the innocent victims,
They have inherited the characters of the animals with nails.

Some human are well behaved with a mind of fox,
cunning is not their acquired traits,
but inherited characters from their ancestors,
the code in their genes emerge as their behavior.

a few have the face of dogs and horses,
a few have the face of fish and snakes,
a few have the nose of lions and hippos,
we are the human evolved from the animal kingdom.

very interesting! Our ancestors stayed only with three Gunas and four casts to describe human traits. You have gone many steps further! Loved it!
