Elephant marching to important occasion, <br />Ego of importance towering over all creatures of instinct, <br />Intentionally blind to the presence of the surrounding, <br />Destination in full view with intention of reaching it straight, <br />Despite the miniature lives lying on the road, <br />Nonentities in the mind of the well to do and rich, <br /> <br />The shrill sound of the victim, <br />Sound faint to the large ears of the elephant, <br />Large ears, loud sound, <br />Big feet, all minute creatures to give way, <br />Otherwise crushed mercilessly with no remorse, <br />One happened, the poor ant was crushed to nothing see, <br />Importance ego reign supreme in the mind of the elephant, <br />Concerned about dribbling out of the sorry state of affairs, <br />Notwithstanding the outcry for mercy, <br /> <br />Plea to the elephant to take responsibility for the mishap, <br />Met with arrogance and selfishness, <br />Sympathy flew out of the window, <br />When the ego petal blossomed out of control, <br />Causing me to throw away the tabloid in disgust!<br /><br />Niki Nicholas Nkuna<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/elephants-trampling-on-ants/
