The Shrieking Elephant - Poem

Speaking Bird (Bolti Chidiya)

I am 
in the state of misery
I think I am being assaulted,
by some unknown.
I was just feeding my baby,
can someone tell me,
what was my fault?
gasping for breath every minute
the twain of me
exhaling heavily,
in the sinking tone.
I feel like my body is maiming,
and oh my god!
someone save my baby,
and bring him alive
my burning skin weakening me,
I am losing my tonne.
I don't know what had happened,
by eating that pineapple cone
In any moment
I could die
please save my child
I sigh in the moan
