Crocodile Tears

I know what you think about us.

We are not the most beautiful creatures I admit that. But to treat us with such contempt is not right either. We were born this way. And sadly, we were even neglected by evolution. We have just grown a little .. that’s it. They say God sees the truth but waits. But isn’t 20 million years long enough. How much longer do we have to suffer?

It wasn’t always like this you know. There was a time when you respected us. We were worshipped as Gods. We were called Sobek. Our strength, our agility was something you people craved for. Our ferocity was admired. We were the ones who came out of the waters of chaos to create the world. And look how you treat us now. Yes.. we are hideous if you say so. But that doesn’t stop you from using our skin to make bags and wallets.. does it?

Oh.. now more accusations? We eat our own children? We eat them before they hatch??

So INHUMAN??????

Guys.. seriously.. terrible choice of words.

And yeah.. we do it. We eat our infant children. I don’t know if it’s right or wrong. We don’t think about it when we do it. We are just made this way. But who are you to accuse me? Don’t you sell your children to other people? Don’t  you engage your own kids into prostitution? Don’t you have abortions? How is it in anyway different from  us? We at least do it to survive. You do it for your own fucking pleasure. With all that brains and evolution, you were supposed to be the people with reason.  Yeah.. you have reason.. only to justify your own misdeeds. Hypocrites.

And tell me if I am wrong.We are not the only ones eating you. A thousand other species gobble you up in no time. But you have pinpointed us and the snakes and the sharks as the most hated ones. As if we have nothing to be admired. You see a lion and you all go.. WOW. And when we come its.. EWWWW. Damn.. you people are so fixated with looks. You were the guys who came up with the phrase .."don’t a judge a book by its cover”.. so why not apply it in a practical scenario???? But then who am I advising? You morons judge  the character of a person based on the colour of his skin. Honestly… we are better off being fools. We have never waged wars against alligators just because they look very similar to us.

That's not all.. you now even farm us for our meat, And what was verdict after eating us... that we taste like a cross between chicken and crab meat.

Chicken???? Chicken???????

You have got to be kidding me. After all those years of carnivorous lifestyle we still taste like chicken?

Do you know how insulting that is? It doesn’t matter to me how tasty you find chicken.. I seriously find it offensive.

But hey.. we don't need any sympathy. After all it's just crocodile tears.
