you made me a communist

YOU MADE ME A

COMMUNIST



i had believed in socialism
and nonviolence
i had hoisted blue flag

in my dreams
i was always in
white starched


'khaddar' clad

one morning
a comrade came
he pointed his sword
in to my neck

blood profusely came
comrade swabbed
with white kerchief
"a new RED FLAG"

comrade ordered me
to hoist the new "red flag"

another comrade came
and taught me
how to abuse fourth pillar
and i learned the word
"BUSTARD"

a senior comrade
came and taught me
how to be a secular

now i am uttering the
word "VULTURE"
where i am seeing
priest and nuns

COMRADES,
earlier i was a
human being
now....


you made me
a COMMUNIST
