UNDEPENDABLE

Oh these brahmins, dangerous and venomous

Undependable untrustworthy and also evasive

Manipulating cheating subversive sabotaging

Coming in as scholars go to become advisers,

And starting as priests not of their god brahma

Not native indigenous peoples’ proto-historic

Shiva - the protector of the cows denigrated

As Paraya amongst the gods and goddesses!

They invent a new god as the protector of life!

For many of the coopted local rulers chieftains

Foolish stupid native rulers to go into the grips

Of brahmins to exploit and squeeze the poor!

End up as virtual rulers from front as advisers

And take over the reins from the stupid rulers

By bringing the queens under their influences

And keeping the women under their control

And go to the extent of even telling the rulers

Of the need to produce for the good of State

The crown prince who will be the next ruler

And so keep all crown princesses or queen

Till they produce from those queens princes

For the good of that ruler State and People!

Soon ultimately took over the Rule of State

As they did many on occasions many places!

- a dalit
