Inside a Mosque On a Friday Prayer

UhUhUh! Even cattle on sunny hot days 
Feel suffocation 
Inside windows-doors-shut sheds 
(yes! i have seen it, how their eyes bulge out and redden, 
And they take deep sighs, 
And look perplexed in fear.)  
And no one! no one! minds it, here 
In this huge crowd! 
Even this arrogant hands-raising-high 
Moulvi... 
Oh! I get angry 
But soon i cool down, 
As it quickly comes to my mind, the old saying,
"As is the preacher So art his listeners."
