Just Like That

By Gowri V

He seems to struggle

Carrying such a big grain

Maybe he is greedy

Or just have too many stomachs to fill.

He seems to be in rush

For their cries are echoing in his head.

While he is nearing that tiny hole

in the unnoticed corner

The unknowing foot of my brother’s

grazed him with a pat

maybe to appreciate his hardwork

And a life ended just like that.
