Initial knock worldwide-
An open collapse of systems
Supreme sacrifices by crops
Leaving loyalists teary-eyed
Sparing no day, no night-
Now the eyes, dry-hard so stiff.
All eyes on new shows-
Hopefully, getting anxious for solutions
But, for the shameless politicians-
Spoilt for the choice, enjoying a fun.
For the love of anti-social elements
Terrorists of good quality in the protection
As such, a force within getting so stronger.
A foot in front of the door-
Door of treasury, authority and power
But, who needs doors, they're experts
Experts in using windows and back-doors.
It's crazy, that a political party's rally
Affiliation, means most for the people-
Educational institutions have to shut down
Along with all business concerns to combat
Combat, hordes pouring in, day in day out-
Common man becoming the victim of rage.
Democracy, a high gossip of the day-
Unruly mobs in streets, bazaars or on NHWs
Criminals getting consumed in settling scores
Isn't it an initial collapse of so called system?
