Robbers Poem by Veeraiyah Subbulakshmi

Robbers



Robbers are everywhere,
titled with honors.
They live like kings,
Action of them stings.

When they rob in millions,
as commissions,
actually they let others
to rob in billions.

Those who talk about justice,
corrupt free nations at their home,
bribe our politicians,
to rob from our poor nations.

What you preach can be practiced,
in double standard?
To let your own country to prosper,
why do you let us, the poor, to suffer?

The honorable robbers,
are our politicians,
who rob our peace,
our future and the sleep.

There was a display in Edinburgh castle areas and it says that this was the place where the stones were removed to pave the pavements of London! We, the common wealth countries do not have such records.

Dear Subbulakshmi, The poem 'Robbers' is exposing the politicians. Whenever they make some plans and projects in crores, these are meant for their own benefits. They behave like jackals. V.K.Kanniappan
