A dark skinned man
not anyway a reference
to race, One who is many
shades less than his country men
holds ideas darker than his complexion.
behaves darkest than the midnight.
equivalent to pitch darkness,
A money lender by profession
extorts, extracts interest
like Shylock, demands
flesh and sucks blood.
Atrocity is his weapon,
dissects, penetrates
and pulls out the core.
from the profound.
Dreaded by his own kin,
a terror to his children
specially the in laws , fear
to look at him ,he calls himself
a philanthropist. the word
should feel ashamed
to qualify him. He aspires
for, the highest, settles for
the lowliest. A deadly being
not to be called a man.
