Trap

by Kingshuk Chakraborty

Traps are not new for humans.

We have been laying it for ages

In different forms,

In different shapes,

For animals,

For each other,

Sometimes for fun

Sometimes for lives.

Wonder, how innocent we pretend today

On the death of an elephant,

When we made our

Brothers, sisters, friends, foes

Bleed and die millions of times.

We moved from forest to town

But our instincts never changed.

We just became better and better

In wearing masks.
