A Democracy For The Rich Poem by Samanyan Lakshminarayanan

A Democracy For The Rich

Rating: 0.5


A democracy for the rich
A democracy to become rich

even on the poll day
the candidate has to pay
the booth staffs..for them not to sway
a three thousand he would pay
a payment which is out of the way

even amidst such stringent poll rules
the ACTUAL expenses of the candidates
has hit a new high

WHO IS SPOILING WHOM

sad to say, it is also happening here in our country..And we cannot call it a democracy.And WHO IS SPOILING WHOM? now we can point our fingers to somebody without knowing that the three fingers are pointing back at us..because we allowed ourselves to be manipulated and be bought.An overhaul of our attitude should be given the priority first..
