Mobocracy Vs Democracy Poem by Jaipal Singh

Riding on the waves
Of popular public sentiments
Largely driven by common issues
And subjective considerations…

He knows well
How to play skillfully
With the sentiments of people
On sensitive socio-economic causes
And to encash it meticulously
For catapulting himself
In the national perspective
To stand among leading players.

Indeed, a classic example of
So cleverly tapping mobocracy
To his instant benefit
In the garb of democracy
And why not - afterall
There is an old saying
Make hay while the sun shines.
