Human nature is such <br />That if you sit, they'll say, 'No, don't sit.' <br />If you stand, 'What's the matter? Walk! <br />And if you walk, 'Shame on you, sit down.! <br /> <br />If you so much as lie down, they'll order, 'Get up.' <br />If you don't lie down, no respite, ' Lie down.' <br /> <br />I'm wasting my days getting up and sitting down. <br />If I'm dying right now, they speak up, 'Live.' <br />If they see me living, who knows when <br />they'll say, 'Shame on you. Die!' <br /> <br />In fear, I secretly go on living.<br /><br />Taslima Nasrin<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/aggression-2/
