How they segregate !
To a law student
they preach that a gulf exists
between lawman and the layman
To an aspiring doctor
They preach how to treat a patient
And, what stands between them and him.
To a budding politician
they teach the art of political science
and how to lure innocent people for votes.
To an engineer
they show how logics and technicalities
help them to stand apart.
To a budding management student
they teach how to manipulate simple things
that may be done with ease.
To finance person
they teach how to translate everything to monetary terms
and bully other in the name of “Checks and balances”
To an insurer
they teach how to magnify the “Risk factor”
And capitalize the fear in humans.
Million Thanks to Almighty God
We are poets and have no such institutions to preach us
and are proud that we are still pure and untouched.
