Mutated Species.. Poem by Veeraiyah Subbulakshmi

Mutated Species..



Who has laid the dark blankets,
Hiding all good shine from the eyes,
Nocturnal animals are always here,
Chasing every other weak in despair.

Who has nailed the opaque shroud,
Just above the goon's and saint's head,
Showering of the rain allowed,
The rays of hope, hard to pass through.

Who has cordoned the perimeter,
With the tapes of ignorant rulers,
The group of mercury less thermometer,
Hot and cold can't be deciphered.

Wingless birds and the scaleless snakes,
Venomous doves and toothless tigresses,
Mutated species and crippled ideologies,
Who has laid the dark blankets?
