Guinea Pigs
We are like the caged Guinea Pigs!
We run and stare at the day.
We are born to die
for the benifit of others!
In the tempest of ideologies
that incubated the revolutions,
We fought as the fist line of defence
and died as martyers.
During the dark ages
when the faith spat poisonous fumes,
We were made to march ahead
with the religious torch
and fed the enemies swords!
We killed ourselves
to test the annihilating weapons.
Crores of men
treading on this earth
are like Guinea Pigs;
They haven't seen
the light of truth,
They haven't enjoyed
peaceful life for a day!
We are enslaved
Our brain is filled with illusions,
We are locked in the
cells of modern culture!
Helplessly
we stare out,
There is no escape from this
steel bars!
We are only Guinea Pigs!
