Fox left the place, went ahead

 

Delighted with d' nature's beauty,

the monk walked on d' riverside

abruptly spotted a sailing corpse,

stuck to d' bush, partly putrefied

He woefully observed the dead,

seemed to be a familiar person

must have died a horrible death,

in flood water ruthlessly thrown

 

A hungry fox rushed to devour it,

halted right away by the hermit

"it's d' body of a wicked person,

hold your hunger it's unfit to eat

Move away from d' ominous spot,

and try to fetch some fitting food

limbs looked so tempting, edible,

the stunned fox stood unmoved

 

Hermit narrated in simple words,

those wicked hands never offered

clothes to a bare-bodied person,

little food to any hungry creature

No donation to schools, temples,

orphanages or d' charity centres

amassed funds from d' innocent,

but gave no solace to sufferers

 

Exploited all to the extreme,

no offerings for a good cause

inferior stuff to be gobbled up,

restrain your desires, do stop 

In a dilemma, not  convinced,

fox soberly appealed d' hermit

"starved since a  couple of weeks,

at least d' enticing ears I can eat"

 

Oh never,

those ears are not fit either

they listened to all filthy jokes,

all talks of infatuation,

habitually heard vulgar songs

and of illicit relations

 

Denied hearing pathos of life,

stories of sufferings of people

a discourse of spiritual gurus,

tales of Ramayan, Gita/ Bible

Dislikes d' songs of devotion,

and God's pacifying prayers

you can never get contented,

to munch those decaying ears

 

I can further advocate you,

about his ill worthless eyes

his low look at d' have-nots,

and ugly glance to the ladies

 

No visit of any holy hermits,

steps of a temple never climbed

put feet in no sacred place,

did no pilgrimage,

for selfish motives he thrived

My dear listen carefully,

pay full attention

his pulpy feet, fleshy legs too,

all unfit for consumption

 

After demise hurled into d' river,

no patriot did nothing for d' nation

fire too unwilling to touch him,

might have refused a cremation

He filled his stomach with food,

bought on d' deceitful earnings

gathered funds to live lavishly,

piled up enough curse and sins

 

No body part, right for your diet

in head too, no eatable elements

jam-packed with d' ego of youth,

wealth, status and achievements

Never behaved politely in life,

before elders never bowed head

things seemed too mystifying,

fox left the place, went ahead

Make wrong facts too sensational

 

A nefarious telecast of corona census,

as d' breaking news, panel wrangling

plain facts distorted to confuse people,

notorious concept of the Zohnerism

 

Zohner had no intent to ban water,

an impulse prompted him to attempt

how d' gullible guys can get biased,

he tried a leeway to covey his point

 

Proved to be 100% factually correct,

could skew d' entire facts in his favour

true information was deviated a bit,

to create an amazing virtual wonder

 

To make fool of d' public, steer facts,

like the shrewd tricks of d' politicians

could persuade to accept his claims,

mislead the innocent ignorant ones

 

Nathan Zohner, the14-year-old lad,

smartly tried to paint in a science fair

explained his project to classmates,

sought to ban a most toxic chemical


The chemical he wanted to explain,

was Di-hydrogen mono-oxide liquid

logical scientific claims in its favour,

to his audience could easily provide

 

Simple facts were tactfully twisted,

to confuse most of his classmates

why its use needs to be restricted,

rather ban it forever, did advocate

 

If converted into a gaseous form,

it might cause blisters and burns

corrodes and rusts the metal iron

might cause excessive urination

 

Excess intake results in bloating,

kills countless people during rains

commonly found in tumour tissues,

dissolve gases to cause acid rain

 

Creates havoc causes devastation,

if on it you become too dependant

erupts a withdrawal syndrome soon,

can play its devious addicting act

 

Irrefutable scientific evidence sited,

stunned his audience with his skill

tough to rebut his burly reasoning,

emphasized that even it might kill

 

A confident face with brilliant eyes,

an absolute non-stop presentation

flawlessly performed d' motivation

of his classmates in the year 1997

 

Asked for the cogent opinion and

if they wish to ban it once for all

43 out of the 50 were convinced,

voted to ban this toxic chemical

 

Finally, he explained the chemical,

not typically regarded as toxic at all

in fact dihydrogen monoxide, simply

d' unconventional name of d' water

 

No taste/color/ calories/nutrients,

for all form of life, yet so essential

clear, shapeless, flexible and soft,

can it be the most toxic chemical?

 

Very meaningful sensible events,

occurring so often in today's world

over-active social sites print media,

make wrong facts too sensational
