THE TERMITES
The termites or the white ants,
Who're supposed to eat the dead,
Must be killed mercilessly,
For they cause to imbalance
Our sacred ecology,
Believe me, once I saw them,
Eat live trees and turn them dry,
Within a few days or weeks,
And even great men's bodies
To send them to oblivion!

Through this short poem (and also through the poet's notes) , you have definitely drawn attention towards the enemies of human society as well as of our culture and civilization. You have rightly called them termites. It was a relief that you got your precious material at the end of an horrific experience. Thanks & Good Wishes, Sir.
Thank you Mr Rajinish for realizing my feelings presented in the poem. Hope you are reading some other poems of mine from Poem Hunter.
