The Dead Elephant


Kerela Elephant Killing


An expecting Mother

Was fed pineapple with cracker.

No need to tax imagination

For what happened further.



Everywhere in media-

Social or otherwise,

Anyone who could express-

Raised hues and cries.



All type of activists

Became active at last.

Officers, leaders (Naturally opposition)

Demanded action fast.



A “specie” who rarely shows

Kindness to their own kind,

Their rant for someone else

Sort of, blew away my mind.



I wonder how many living elephants

Appreciate our concern and support.

The dead one, above, for sure,

Should gawk at our rapport.



No amount of sufferance,

No protest vehement

Can guarantee there’ll be

No repeat of such incident.



CRUELTY is innate to all the living.

But what makes it different

Is - where others kill to survive,

Humans do, just for experiment.
