LET’S BE THE COW

Life teaches lessons
It uses the most disgusting
The most confusing but challenging
To impact lives and gives direction
Guiding the heart of the wise
Putting the wisdom into use
And leading the foolish
Unto destruction for neglect

The story of a man
Who owns herd of cattle
Both the good and the bad
The strong and the weak
The fat and the thin
As it exist in human society
Classes of people
With the satisfied and the unsatisfied
The rich and the poor
Mixed people with mix feelings

But this cow, old and thin
For a cool day stroll on street
Landed in an uncovered shallow well
Groaning in pain for the one to come
The owner to rescue the helpless
Coming to see the unbelievable
Trying all best to do something
Left in anguish, concluding
After-all, old, thin and now useless
As the down-trodden don’t matter

Avoid future re-occurrence
Gather multitude to cover with sand
With the unlucky old thin cow
Crying at the wickedness of the once
Known leader and owner of ‘me’
Summoning courage even though
That way is there from the low
Stepping up as sand dropped on back
Stepping on the problems and staying up
Hoping to be free from it though

This is unbelievable!
Yes, soon, it came up on surface
Even right in their own face
Held in cold silence of surprise
Shivering to the soul for evil act
Now, the rejected seems valued
Valued again for what the owner
Could again get from it,
To be slaughtered for meat
After years of milk and bearing
With enough caring and affection

What a miserable life!
Yes, in the animal farm
Making rules for the ‘best and different’
A state of chaos and nature
Where life is brutal, nasty and short
Let’s be the wise cow
What do u do when life
Present to you hatred for love
Step up on it and get up of it.
