I AM NOT A SILENT GOAT

Treat me not so,
I am not a silent goat;
Every human has his pride
So do I.
Don't take me for granted; I can move, breath and chew as you do, so treat me not so.




Kick me not so,
I am not a silent goat;
The cud in mouth is not an act of stupidity,
But a way of enduring hardship but can't endure it any longer than this.
So treat me well and I shall serve you better.




Are humans better than goats?
Even though you are-
We become equal at death,
Then why carry yourself up as if you own the world?




I am not as silent as you may think I am,
I have a right to live as you have;
Treat me like a fool and you shall be arrested immediately:
Every goats are not without passion to live and be free like humans.






More blood dripping down from my eyes,
More pains stripped down on my body;
Is that not enough for the perfection of my stupidity?
As I stretched in the womb,I heard your complaints,
There seemed to be a mess that another goat is coming-
Why treat me though like am insane?






I am not a silent goat you should have known that,
I talk when others are silent looking like a coin.
Why treat me like this?
Why treat me like a commoner?!
Why kick me here and there?
I have a conscience like you do!!!
