Power And Politics Poem by Ashram Ashram

POWER AND POLITICS

Power and politics rivulet of privileges of mankind and cliques
Ambiguous edge of caress and prowess of equity and inclinations
Of intent of service and sacrifice in specters of egotics
Of contexts of conflicts of esteem and disdains in altercations
Chance of a lifetime to leave a legacy for generations
Making a difference for the better only to be squandered
By corruption of mind for an ulterior motive of ablation
Of trust of the innocent betrayal of behavior of expected
Falling short of the promises disappointing hearts of common folk
Holding on to affectation of assurance painting colors of chameleon
Conniving portraiture fooling the naive walking the path that fork
Talking both ways hoping to get away in chastity pavilion

Only to be snared sooner or later by the deceived
Feeling slighted by the trusted living the pain of harmed
