Anteater

One feels for the anteater,
Named after what they do,
Instead of what they are,

Then, Shouldn’t one feel for humans?!
We call them engineers,
Doctors,
Teachers,
Writers,
And what not,
As we grow older we no longer are referred by our names,
but rather our professions,
Yet we feel for the anteater,
Atleast the anteater enjoys eating ants.
