Rama Balasubramanian Poet Free verse

Animal Rides - Inhumane

Rope circling mouth and neck
Many sitting on the back
Owner beating with stick
This happens in horse and camel ride

In case of bullock cart it is worse,
Rope goes within one nose,
comes out of another

Owners do it for money
Riders sit and enjoy
All are inhuman,selfish, heartless

If a stronger creature ties a rope
to our nose, neck and body,
sits on us and beats us when we don't move
How will we feel?

Note: A small glimpse of human atrocities committed against animals. List is endless.
