INDOMITABLE MAN
Whose hands have
Carved these images
From the days of yore
Who has painted
These pictures from
The pages of the past
A long journey from
Homo erectus
To homo sapiens
He appears in light
Yellow or brown
Or red ochre or in
Shades of green
Away from
The wilderness
In the jungle rule
Nobody is spared
No mercy, no sympathy
Even for near
And dear ones
The jungle king
Dictates and decides
Your destiny
The length of your
Life is measured by
The elongating
Shadow of death
You cannot prolong
The old on the
Alter of the young
Let the jungle king
Dictate
You are the invincible
Spirit, you have
Conquered the world
You have tamed the
Mighty rivers
You have beaten
The vast sea
You have captured
The infinite sky
Why do you fear
To stride the earth
Like an
Indomitable man
