An Act Of Politics! Poem by Ramesh T A

An Act Of Politics!

Rating: 5.0


Making democracy a farce is an act of politics -
Lowering the prices of articles before the election,
Increasing prices after election more than before
And deceiving the tax payers and the poor alike!

Equality they preach for the rich and poor to suffer -
Offering free rice, TV and all sops without quality,
Levying taxes to the hard working to spend lavishly
And making socialism and capitalism a farce ever!

Politicians as monkey to decide the share of cheese
As judge eat away the whole piece giving nothing
To the cats people, who wait and watch in suspense
Till end of no use, go frustrated to God's help at last!

It's like the lady who goes after the king ignoring husband
Who lands her as the ant caught between fire and water!

Were you talking about our famous President since election is coming? Ah! politicians always grill to extend their credits and terms without giving any glance at the poverty race outside her/his place.
