The Domecracy Ltd Poem by Rahman Henry

One upon a country
There was a SHE
Who herself called
The blessings of democracy
And desired so would be called
By her people too
Then she was not in position
Then she was an open window

Now
She is afraid of opinions
Afraid of light
Afraid of wind
Afraid of the flutter of truth
Afraid of the buzzing of bees
Afraid of voices from others

Sutting down windows
One after another
Now she is going to close
The doors

Because she is in position now
