Ants of the Universe

Geet Kapoor

We have all done it before, drawing circles around ants

crushing a line of ants to watch them scatter in fear

finding enjoyment in torture

thoughtless and without mercy

but what if that is all we are to the universe?

it toys with us, thinks nothing of it

but it does the same as us

just hunting the ants of their world.

  • Comment from author about the poem: I feel as though our world is but an ant hill, some shall crush it, others break the lines to watch the scatter, they make a maze, they crush us, all things that we do ourselves, the fear of us is the same as the fear of ants, running from death.
