The Idea Of Democracy Poem by Sinclair Azubuike Farrell

The idea of democracy
A powerful illusion
Of a fair and just society

An illusion in which, a select few
Are groomed and selected to rule
Over the masses

Harsh laws are implemented
In countries
Which, are meant to be democratic
Regardless of who is voted for
Inside polling booths

Democracy
Is being exposed as a lie
A- global corporate elite
Who select those deemed fit to be leaders of nations
Like puppets on a string
Democracy in the western world
Is not all what it seems
