Funny Father

    

There was this family of seven

its condition deteriorating day by day 

head unable to feed, provide medicines to sick 

some neighbours started pitching in with help 

angering  the father a lot! 

 

Who are you to provide for my family? 

get lost, mind your own business! 

he was worried about damage to his image 

message would go that this guy

can't even plan, take care,  look after his own  family! 

  

 Funny father indeed- Would rather

his family starve to death

but preserve his image at any cost! 

what head would he be

if there is no more a family to head....?

  1. Well conceived and composed.
    But the father is hardly funny at all!

  2. Thank you Pradeep for your feedback. Here "Funny" is meant in the sense of "strange".

  3. The sad reality of our times, one of the saddest moments perhaps in our history.
