People, Power And Politics! Poem by Mrityunjay Jha

Every Dawn
Hope Springs
Only To Falter
As The Sun Gets Hotter
And
With
The Stroke Of Dusk
It Dies!


The
Interplay Of
Politics And Power
Intoxicates
People
Beyond Recovery.


The
Mounting Piles
Of
Problems
And
The
Countless Promises
Intersect
Nowhere!


The Rulers
And
The Ruled
Inhabit
Seemingly
Different Planets!


Still
Every Dawn
The Illusion
That Shows The Door
Of Democracy Ajar
Floats!


In
The
Corridors Of Power
Live And Thrive
The Elements Of
Surprise!


Power
Paralyses
One And All
In The End of The Day!
