Power Poem by Eric Ekinde

Power



Power is the uppermost ability
to make others perform an activity
even out of their desire or constituency
without them being in conformity.

This power is in the hands of a minority
elected and delegated by the masses or the majority
to be their voices or representatives in the assembly
to seek and foster for them development and unity.

But this minority acts otherwise as for instance
they make the majority who feeds them live in harsh circumstances
while the defend the bujets and take the money to France
instead of working, hence making others to loss government assistance.

Let those in power today
remember too soon that one nice day
they will be off duty and they
will be accountable to God on judgment day.

You parliamentarians listen, that money, the people's money
even if you invest, hold out as you journey
will do you no good for its the people's and they are angry in hungry
s what ever thing you do will seem just funny

Dear people in power, the budget you are defending
is not for you alone, its to get the projects going
give the masses health, education and developing
your constituency, so make hay as the sun is still shinning
for it wouldn't be Xmas for you all seasons...

An interesting poem aimed at raising political conscience...Reads aptly for the Indian political scenario.
