Catching humiliation
Is grasping the hot spoon
In the kitchen,
And you're alone that time,
And your cry carries
No sigh to your neighbours!
It's receiving the bruises
On your thumb
While going down the stairs
In a hurry to appear
in the entrance exam,
And you have to drop it
As you are unable
To hold the pen properly!
When it strikes on the toe
You have to stay back
In the house
As coming out
Is like jumping on the floor
Beset with pebbles!
Everywhere it is,
And like a snake
In the bathroom,
It hisses at your fear
And you only feel the pain
Because you find yourself
Incapable of removing it
The very moment!
Finally it impersonates the ghost
That keeps haunting you
During your sleep
For Swan days!
