We The People. Poem by Binayakumar Mohanty

We The People.



Like the dust
Beneath your lotus feet

We the people of your state
Which is not ours
We form a Government
That makes law for us
But the Government is not ours.

Judiciary to safeguard fundamental right
But we can not claim justice
As We are not elite and polite.

We the people of the state
Not ours
So precious are our votes
We should pay respect
Your Emblem
Your flag
Your constitution.

We the peoole of the state
Ruled by the polite and elite
But the state is not ours
