We both were struck by the same stove.

We both were struck when cooking for survival.

You burnt your hand by the food made

And I created the food that burnt you.

In both ways, it was your loss.

 

We both clean our teeth with something sharp.

Yet you got struck and not me.

The same food you depended on

To fill your stomach

The same person you depended on

To make the food for you

Burnt you.

 

Even though he saw the flame

That triggered the stove to heat

He ignored it.

He is your ancestor.

And you need to eat the burnt food cooked by him

 

The least you can say is Thank You.
