Politics is an entity-
Without conscience and integrity
Both devil and divine with equality!
Once upon a time-
It was a pure selfless service
Now striking gold, silver or bronze.
For people, it's time to shed tears
Peeling toxic silence over and again
Over their differences and grievances.
Ignited, fanned and flamed by politicians-
Who eat, play and hate but love not humanity
Value not beauty of grounded natural relations.
Until, the one proves to be worthy of it-
Can't assign any one, the best political-party
The concept appears to be confused and cursed!

I HATE POLITICS, DEAR HANS RAJ SHARMA! As a poet and as an inhabitant, we can do nothing UNLESS we do actions like Dr. Taslima Nasreen. Just complaining in beautiful rhymed verses and poems, we get nothing, only a beautiful poem, BUT here must occur something explosive in real life. So must Dr. Taslima Nasreen flee INDIA and she lives now in Sweden and the USA, just because she opens her mouth to accompany her poems.
CONGRATULATIONS on being chosen as the Member Poem Of The Day, Hans Sir. Such beautiful end rhymes Tercet. I have enjoyed reading this lovely Tercet, but my heart becomes very sad. WHY? Since I only read about these helpless words, but the creator of this poem has done nothing to CHANGE. He is only describing the situation, explaining and telling that the concept is confused and cursed. Result? ZERO
A well composed poem of the day. Congrats on your featured piece..........10+++++
Politics is causing a lot of problems over the world because politicians lack conscience and integrity...10.
In democracy, no party can really satisfy the aspirations of the common people because people by and large have their own likes and dislikes rather than achieving certain goals. As we can see, people are often propelled by impulses than wisdom. Mass psychology is really explosive like a drunken monkey which is bitten by a scorpion. People must know to check on their own for a congenial atmosphere.
An incisive and insightful write. I concur with the comment of Poet Parameswaran Nair. Congratulations !

Congratulations poet Hans Raj. Politics and politicians inflict injuries to the public conscinece and in the long run mark their own disaster
