Politics In Bangladesh Poem by Asif Andalib
Politics In Bangladesh
Whoever comes to power
Becomes somewhat dictator
They don't care about people's demand
It's a hard fact in my dear motherland
Most of them make black money
And deposit in foreign banks
But they pretend they are good people
And the greatest think tanks
They disgrace the political rivals
Even if they are blameless
No matter what; they want to remain in power
They are so shameless
When a new political party comes to power
They abandon projects of the previous governments
They change the nameplates of public institutions
They give promotions to their obedient civil servants
They dishonor national heroes
To become heroes themselves
They do more harm than good to the country
They are like some wicked elves
They go for pilgrimage with friends and family
All their costs are met by the poor helpless country
They travel far and wide to walk on red carpet
And see new places
The country is not benefitted from it
In most of the cases
They talk tall like they are doing everything they can
While most of them are nothing but shadows of Satan
It sounds as if this heinous atrocities only takes place in Bangladesh. My dear poet, the rotten worm still lives in every part of this world. It is so unbearable yet what can one ever do than to let the mouth shout restlessly. I love your poem Asif, we hope those in concern would get touched by it.
Politics is more or less the same in most places. They hardly ever listen to yhe people.
i don't agree totally with what thomas writes below. the U.S. just reelected obama but it was SO obvious that not ALL the people wanted him. and my wife, who had high hopes for him when he was first elected, voted for a third party candidate this time (maybe last time also) . AND when someone is elected it doesn't mean he/she can or will do what the people thought she/he would do! ! ! ! !
