Analysis of Worthless Life
I am not such a leader
Who dances, as the monkey
On the rope of its masters
Who acts, moves, lives
And breathes,
Without its will and consent
I am a leader of the self-determination
Within the blessings
And lights of the Divine power,
Which prevails entire universe
I am not, as you
A hired baboon of the agencies,
Pretending intellectual
While characterless
Depending upon the mercy
And the will of others
It is not a life
It is the worst way than slavery
Consequently,
Slaves gain and win nothing
Except, the bones as for a dog
To be faithful, to its masters
Such life is unworthy
So you are a worthless too.
