Common
Lizards, (Katussas), Lizards, Skinks, Chameleons and our
Politicians
Except
for skink, I had all the visitors of the lizard family to our rooftop
garden.
Why?
Some
for mating and some for laying eggs and the most to feed on my
Guppy fish (who venture out of the three fourth shade and covering I
have laid for them as a protection).
Some
of them feed on the black bees (a single colony on the retaining
wall).
The
chameleon unlike the rest are fearless creatures, regard me with all
its might and never move an inch from their advantage point, unless I
am at hands length.
Nod
of the head of their default display, reminds me of our politicians
in an international conference (not understanding a word what the
speaker is saying).
But
the recent events in politics, illustrates the commoner garden saying
in our times “Dressing around the neck of gold of a common lizard”.
The
lizard does not value it.
Our
politicians who grab the Defense Portfolio as a dress (without dress
rehearsal for a real crisis) of authority is like a common lizard
with a gold chain round its neck.
Mind
you all these politicians have gold round their belly.
That
is why they struggle to get up after a conference meeting.
