I am a walking ant.
Can’t speak
I can’t sit
I can’t eat
I can’t breath
I can’t stand
I can’t live.
I can’t see
I can’t hear
I can’t learn
Even though I am a human,
I am a walking ant among elephants
Even though they are humans
They are elephants, lions, tigers, hyenas, etc.
I am an ant among elephants.
Can I live freely?
