Ant among elephants

Dr.Suryaraju Mattimalla

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?
