Hey snooty lady –
nose in the air
Foundation on face,
Gel in the hair
You do not want
To share the lift with others
Unless they are your own
Real blood brothers..
When we invite you
You turn away your face
Are we untouchables
Much beneath your race??
Now you are young
One day you will age
You may stick out your tongue
But Fate will steal a page
What is it
Tell me
That annoys you so
Are the others stinking
Or you think they are low?
Why do you shun
The folks in the lobby
Are you scared of Covid
Or is aloofness a hobby..
Is it they do not match your passion
To be always dressed in the latest fashion
Are they too small
Or are you too big
They eat simple food
While you chomp on a fig…
You share on facebook
Your various NGOs
To celebrate your generosity
You strike a lovely pose
A day will come though
When You will find you need
All those whom you shun..
When you start hobbling
And can no longer run
You’ll reach out to them then
In sorrow and despair
But none around you
May ask you how you fare
So land down now on earth
Don’t fly up in the air
Give and you shall get
Learn to share and care
