People are not ..........
People are not what they are now
There are stages they passed through
When they too were angel children
Simple in deeds and pure in nature
But circumstances stamped their attitude
And made them cruel and clever
Defensive and detective for survival
Interfering in others' lives and matters
Trespassing the territory and the limits
Disguised in deceptive faces
Wearing thorny innocence masks
The world of necessities made them learn
