Social Monkeys
Superjit Sharma *
Do not call us chink,
Do not call us Junglee,
Do not say we are cannibals,
Do not say our sisters are trollop;
Instead say we are from rich biodiversity region,
Instead say we are from multi-cultured region,
Instead say we produce famous sports stars,
Instead say our region have rich flora and fauna;
If not understand that we eat same rice as you do,
If not understand that our childhood starts with a, b,c , d ..as you do,
If not understand that the same red fluid flows in our vein as you do,
If not understand that we are a bunch of social monkey ;
Yet try to recognise that we all are Human,
Yet try to recognise that people create walls, barriers,
Yet try to recognise that people create Wars,
Yet try to recognise that we live in an Uncertain WORLD !!!
