By the Roadside

Alive and well, settled down on a roadside. Lighten with the day, blanketed by the night. I don't move or so for called. I see what I see. I see lots of things. May some say it futile, for me its deep.

Day by day, night by night, I witness behavior of homo-sapiens. A kind that fascinates me loads. Dressed in colors of lots, some are bright and some are dark. Clothes in which simple yet elegant, in some complex yet stylish. Walk about the roadside, destination unknown to me. I envy them, they could move, i remained stationary. Most, I see, rides tin, metal colored vehicle they named cars. Different kinds I see zooms about. Slow and steady, no rush. Fast and traumatic, I shock. Every one passed, brought a whisker of breeze. I see everyday.

To extend my jealousy is the attribute of them to communicate, talk. I could only hear, my heart they can't. As they passed me, i eavesdrop at times. Just to keep me entertained. Some was talking to their walking partner about things in life. Problems, joy, discussion, etc. With some, they just murmured alone. Sighing , discouraging. I don't understand why with the behavior of this, puzzles me. Even some, talk to little gadgets. Pressing the buttons, talk to it. Its strange to me they talk to machinery. Maybe its their ability I don't have.

People, as they own kind call it, has different attitudes, uniqueness. I see those who smile gave me pleasure to know of a great day. Some frowned or even teared. I've seen anger and quarrels too. I don't like it much. In some cases, distressed. To configure why, remains oblivion. Manners too some have. Bastards who were careless have the heart to step on me. Don't they know the feeling of pain they inflict? No bother since I couldn't voice. To my warm, I thanked silently those who walk passed me, rather stepping on the asphalt than me.

Days, weeks, months passed. I'm still here, aging myself to meet death. To decree, my death is not mourned. I still witness this humans everyday, with different variation every time. See me, do say hello. I would appreciate even you couldn't see it.

I'm still Human

Two arms. Two legs. Two eyes. Two ears. A mouth. A nose. A torso. A head. Do you have all that I have too? Did you have it when you were born? Majority of the society will say YES without doubt. Some may lost it in an undesirable happenings. Some may have it but alas in defect. Even so, you are still be called as a HUMAN.

Soon to realise, why does some people look at those as if they were freaks? Did the hearts of those who misunderstood gone deep into the blind abyss? Judging them for what they look like, for what they previously did, for what they suffer, is seriously inhuman. Yes maybe those who we considered sinister i.e criminals and law breakers as something atrocious. Ever think those in innocence you may judge wrongly? If you don't, why does speculations come afoot? Gossips and stereotyping happening everywhere?

To those who underestimate, gave the cold shoulder to other, you think you are better then them? What made you to outcast from what is originally your kind (A human) ? Those who made mistakes then repent from it, why did you treat them badly? Even those who are at misfortune, why still you have the heart to give them the bad eye? You think you are so good?

Think for a moment. Stop the life clock and ponder. Will you be satisfied when you did all of it to them? They are still humans like you. Maybe they be in your opposite gender , still the same kind,species. They made a mistake? Forgive and forget. They made you upset? Tell them straight, they may not know. Want their attention? Call them out! Want to help them? Please do. Everyone deserve a fair treatment. Karma is everywhere. You do something, something else will come front near future. Treat everyone nicely. A smile may relief them. You don't know what they suffer or anything that they can do which you don't.

Still think you're good? Halt your actions and remember. They are still alive and well. They can do the same things you did. Just wait for the time for Karma to kick in. They are still humans like me. I'm still Human like all of you.
