Class Action
by Francis W. Porretto
If a creature thinks, it will have a sense for right and wrong, and therefore for justice. But two thinking species are not guaranteed to have the same sense of justice, or the same way of arriving at a verdict. How, then, should one such species treat with the rights of another with whom it shares a world...when one regards the other as its food source, its rightful prey?We always say forgive and forget who poisoned our lives to move ahead. But sometimes it is difficult to do so. If blood bleeds due to some wrong doings by someone, are you going to stop criticising him/ her after his/ her death? Legally yes. You have to drop case against him. But your heart will never allow you to forget and forgive easily. Those who are not the victims can utter those saintly words very easily. But can you, as a victim?The other eight poems are based on contemporary situations of our daily social lives and social relations. Some of them are on serious issues and some are written on lighter vein. I hope my readers will like the compilation.
