Human Sacrifice

The place where I live is a damp swamp space 
Here not only live human beings 
But also live cockroaches, mosquitoes and flies 
India is her name 
If I go more specific then it is called west Bengal 
Around me is only 
Heap of mud, dust and dirt 
Along with some liars, traitors and hypocrites 
Strange, peculiar and odd things always happen 
Most bewildering thing in this place is their mind 
So superstitious are they 
If you listen to their beliefs your head will start to spin 
Take only one here,
They banned the cow slaughtering 
As they think it is a great sin 
But human sacrifice is not bad enough to be stopped
Rather still they believe 
Human sacrifice could bring them a huge fortune.
