Power, Politics And Chewing Gum. Poem by M. Asim Nehal

Ya, this power chair, what a spectacle!
like a chewing gum stretched thin, so irrefutable.

In the land of democracy, it proudly stands,
yet its integrity seems to slip through our hands.

The promises made with such certainty and flair,
melting away, like the stretched gum, unfair.

With each passing day, it loses its flavor,
leaving us stuck, in a state of constant labor.

The chair, once sturdy, now wobbles and bends,
as politicians cater to their own selfish ends.

They chew on the issues and deceive us so long,
just enough to appease, then they move along.

The people, mere chewers, caught in the middle,
left to grapple with problems, as they constantly twiddle.

We spin in circles, like gum stuck under the shoe,
trapped in the mess as the politicians pursue.

Their insincere smiles, oh how they deceive,
making promises they'll never believe.

This long and thin chewing gum is so absurd,
Is it a reflection of the politics we've endured.

But fear not, my fellow citizens, we must not despair,
we'll rise together, with voices clear and fair.

Let's reshape this gum, mold it back into shape,
holding these politicians accountable with no escape.

For we, the people, hold the power in hand,
to rid ourselves of this crumbling, chewed land.

Time is ripe to unite before it is too late lets fight,
and restore the chair's integrity, oh what a sight!

No longer a chewing gum, stretched thin and long,
but a seat of honor, where truth and justice belong.
