Mark a Man!
Notice sparrows!
They build their nests for shelter,
yet do not usurp other’s nests.
But mark a man!
How trickily, beating the birds,
he constructs a house,
appropriating other’s abodes.
Mark a man!
How quickly he outweighs a lizard
in altering colours,
for compiling wealth and power.
How instantly he defeats a monkey
in feigning for self-fulfillment.
How cunningly, conquering a spider,
he builds a net
ensnaring his friends and family.
