Anna, your shrewd politics,
Had Gandhi been alive, would not have liked,
Would not have liked
Your drama,
Your drama
Of doing politics
Though he was also
A politician of some sort,
But not like you.
Had Gandhi been alive, would have,
Would have rebuffed and rebutted you
As your rehearsals,
Joking with the Gandhian clothes and tradition,
Khadi dhoti, kurta and a cap
On the head.
