OUR POLITY
Flying aloft on a helicopter
I can fathom depth of deluge water!
You can vote somebody to power,
But can't recall him soon thereafter.
Tolerance of all other's faith is secularism;
Intolerance of other's faith is seclusionism.
Faltering step in business, you will fall;
Failing step in politics, you will be tall.
Postal stamps are meant for damaging
Faces of leaders by ink stamping.
Political power is real kick,
Under which man stabs at his own back.
I am a V.V.I.P., because I am, er,
A cousin of friend of son of the minister!
Sprawling cremation sites of leaders, sanctified,
Soon will turn the capital, city of the dead.
Democracy is a process by which
Certain men are voted to become rich.
Political leader gives lot of opportunity
To all his followers to make black money aplenty.
Sitting in office, using office, I made money;
Quitting office, wrote of office, and still made money!
All political parties split, split and split-
Like nuclear fission, to gain explosive might?
Best way to hold party members together
Is to make each one of them Prime Minister!
Shameless face has a ribless tongue
Extemporising non-stop harangue!
Born with rich heritage,
Deride rich in knowledge!
The fool who has no seat
Runs for the throne to sit!
Nay, I am not born a tomfool
For people to vote me to rule!
Politician is not magician;
He is only a tactician!
I live here, in a world of politics;
Only politics within my heart, ticks!
The sect that make lie a truth
Are born rulers of this earth!
I say: 'the law will take its own course';
But, in my case, it can take off course!
Nay, not tainted by a scam,
It's the colour of my skin!
I'm public servant doing all your chores
And, for living, made only thousand Crores*
(*Ten million)
You can change the court
But not the decree!
Elections made it possible:
Untouchables are now touchable!
Between the playwright and heroine
Who's the superstar playing hero?
In politics everywhere, election we conduct.
For popular votes, only unpopular contest!
Try holding tricolour Indian flag
From becoming multicolour tag!
