The brutes called human
Legacy, paradox and affirmation
Bound the human society
Distinct from nature's other entities
We create circles and boundaries
Move within them
Restricting our expressions
Virtues, traits and attributes
The human endowments
Suffocate inside like a pigeon
In captivity
Life is governed by laws of
Cosmic consciousness
The man-made confines
Are rooted in subjectivity,
Contrary to the order of nature
The jungles, rivers and oceans
Abounding assortments of diversity
Personifying mutuality and reciprocity
Are ruled by freedom and simultaneity
They do not fight
From the time of Adam
Never a day has passed
When we sat at peace
Blood flows cheaper than water
Cries and tears do not matter
The thirst continues unquenched
We are not ashamed and
Take pride in being human
With ego, arrogance and greed
We are brutes beyond doubt
