He is a Man, He is a Human too - A Tribute to MEN
Inherited with no choice,
on revolt he is often accused,
of having a loud voice.
He Dies for the Nation,
he is a protector of generations,
This unsung Hero,
sadly is valued a Zero.
Religious but sinner,
An obvious bread winner,
He always needs to strive,
for his family to survive,
Gets the blame in the game,
pays through nose as per laws,
He does his every bit,
But never gets any credit.
He grows with a burden,
of money that he should earn,
sweat out his whole life,
Churn and Burn.
He is reminded who he is,
whenever he wants to cry,
responsible he is,
he just cannot shy.
When he talks of his rights,
People often make Fun,
Lets face it, Dear world....
We've missed out on this one...
He is a FATHER,
he is a BROTHER,
he is a HUSBAND,
he is a SON....
He is a man
He is a man
He is a man
He is a Human.
He is a Human.

I was discussing with Grant Medical College Group of students (Mumbai) who have shown a very constructive interest and sensibility towards the issue of a Battered Husband and the syndrome that a male suffers from as a trauma which is a result of tension related to modern marital life. And this Poem was born, as I penned down these lines. I wish them all the success in their Battered Husband Syndrome Project.
This above poem is a tribute to Man.
Phrase 1: He was born for a purpose and has inherited the prime responsibility of growing up and earning for the family, as everyone wishes they should have a son coz he can inherit the responsbilities as a son and take care of the family financially and physically. He is often attached to responsibilities of respecting everyone at the cost of his dignity everytime that he talks about self.
Phrase 2: He makes laws for the world but the world has forgotten to include him.
Phrase 3: He is religious, god fearing but like valmiki commited crimes by looting for his family he too has to commit crimes for feeding the family, but in return he gets nothing.
Phrase 4: The law treats him like an ATM and above all he is ridiculed.
Phrase 5: He is forced in to child labour and always taught to earn, save and spend on others in family first.
Phrase 6: He cannot even express himself emotionally as he is burdened as a male and later labelled as emotionless.
Phrase 7: He is always being mocked at everytime he talks of his rights. Lets face we have neglected him by burdening him as a favourite only in books.
Phrase 8: He can be one of them to you dear reader, a father, brother, husband or son.
Phrase 9: He is a man, He is a Human too.
