Why for specifics, when crimes galore sprout from every pore of thy body
First, you're out and out un-American worthy to be despised by every body
Hark! the very fact of your walking without foot wear as per law is affront
Deserving immediate handcuffing and hurling into jail without warrant
If it's the index of our progress and exemplifies the supreme sense of duty
And serves as a mark to. boasting in the comity of nations for priority
Imprisoning citizens for the offence of walking without footwear justly
I'm sure the true place for a just man's jail, and it alone saves him justly.
As I'm contented bathing my intellect in the cosmognal philosophy of Gita
The source of eternal peace, I need neither footwear, nor living against Gita
Fed up with empty mod culture, I'm living far-off the metropolitan life
If your law punishes such living and thinking, you can meddle with my life.
