A killer femine had spread,
There was acute shortage of water and  bread.

A journalist roamed here and there,
To capture the atrocious air.

He took a picture,
Of a dying child and a vulture.

Who was waiting for the child to die,
So that it could take him and fly.

Later on the photographer was criticised,
For not feeling sympathised.

For a simple act of being kind,
Could have saved the life of that child.

He decides to commit suicide,
And jumped from the hillside.

But before that, he made a confession,
'Humanity comes before profession'.
