Caste

 

Caste
It exists
Everywhere
You may not admit it
But, yes!
Embraced even by you
 
It may not be radical narcissism
But it is for all to see
When you value life based on social status
 
Divisions based on education
          based on bank balance
       based on ethnicity
      based on religion
                based on sexual orientation
      based on language
                based on colour of the skin
      based on politics
   based on looks
        based on ideologies
         based on nationality
 
Caste
It exists in discrimination
Thriving in your ignorance
Growing with your insensitivity
 
Where is the empathy?
Where is equality?
Where is the sympathy?
Where is the compassion?
Where is HUMANITY?
