My friend, Nutsure Satwik, a doctor, recently clicked and posted this amazing photograph of a plant overrun by termites, and an ant delightedly rummaging around, enjoying the unexpected feast , an unlimited buffet.
While none of us would even go near such a plant out of sheer disgust, and fear of inadvertantly spreading the infestation/infection, it is understandable that a person concerned with health afflictions of humans, might notice the same in plants, go near it to investigate, and be surprised by the ant.
Clicking a predator ant, trying to make the most of someone else's misfortune , shouldn't surprise us.
We do it all the time ...
In the Ages
of Riots, Looting
and Feasting ,
Intellectually and Physically
on the Fallen,
this one
is doing nothing different.
Thoughtlessly hyperactive
thanks to all that
sugar imbibed
as a habit,
its peripheral neuropathy
blinds it to the termite dirt.
Carried over
to another plant
and the evil spreads.
Why crib and blame the ant ?
That's how things
spread in our biped society too.....
