The way a snail conceals its face
Getting afraid of the presence of man;
Getting afraid of the presence of man,
The way a snake coils whole body;
The way a deer jumps to flee like lightning
Getting aware of the presence of a tiger;
Getting the smell of a lion nearby, the way
A lioness flees taking calves into mouth;
That way I want to hide myself or I want to
Flee somewhere having my children with me
Because more ferocious than a tiger or lion
A blind creature howls and is getting prepared
To chase us. The only word it utters-
Democracy. It says Democracy but it
Implies tyranny, injustice, torture,
Exploitation, death, rape and ignorance.
