Democracy Poem by Mark Heathcote

Democracy



... We'll obey the laws of this stale democracy
Its leaders will have over us full autocracy.
Let's be honest it's just another bureaucracy,
We will do our best to keep this covenant
Pledge allegiance to form no other government.
We will do our best for those wealthy discomfited
Who don't want poor people in their neighbourhoods?

'Calling for better standards identical brotherhoods'
Or equal pay for much fairer better livelihoods.
Forget those gender feminist sisterhoods
Democracy - democracy - democracy
We must spread it throughout the entire world
Democracy - democracy - democracy
Wouldn't you also like your voice—complaints to be heard?
