The Politician
Politician pouncing
with a mike on podium
Born on a dark dense night
Held in a jail
for murder and extortion
Planning to increase
earth’s plight.
‘End of world
misery is nigh’
Said the man
sans more
To raise
the world high
he was born,
he swore
There will be
no hunger and poverty
and forever
cessation of grief
There will be
no rape and robbery
Loudly declared the thief.
Thus unknowingly
hastening everlasting day
for night is darkest
before dawn, Anjali says
