A Friendly World Poem by Binu Mathew

A Friendly World

Rating: 5.0


Yes, dude, it's industry-friendly,
A paradise for global investors wherein,
Labour and environmental laws compromised,
And all grievances buried therein.

Right, the state's investor-friendly,
Lets black money, flow massive,
Boosts trade and employment,
And turns all critics passive.

Agree, the city's tourist-friendly,
Allows travellers enjoy drugs to the brim,
Where red lights in brothels never turn off
When dismal groans of abuse look grim.

True, the government's people-friendly,
Accepts popular demands, turning down,
Expert views for temporary gain, pushing
Posterity into darkness, further down.

I know you're student-friendly,
Admired by a lot at university.
Enjoying student support and popularity,
A savior of many tutees in adversity.

Friendly often means corrupt and all the corrupt are friendly.
