Poverty Poem by Gajanan Mishra

To get a card of
Below poverty line
I have to spot a person
Who has a link with Maoists.

Some says the head of the
Government, of the state
Is the leader of Maoists.
Catch hold him, other pleads.

Who is poor and
How far he is in poverty
I am not here to measured
Or I am not here to explain or
To eradicate poverty in any way.

The leaders are
cheating the poor
In the name of poverty
And functioning of the
Government is going,
As you know.

To get a card of
Below poverty line
Is to rebuild
The government and
You must agree with
The rich with luxury,
In the name of poverty.
