Poli-ticks .....me off !
This one was writen about 2 years back. In my earlier organization , we had buses leaving every hour starting from 6:15 PM. Having finished off my work at about 6:45 one day, and left with no intereting mail forwards to explore, I wrote this one.
This is not meant to be serious or controversial. Indeed, I have the highest respect and regard for our present Prime Minister and the President.
As we ponder over the
country’s fate
and rave and rant
and discuss n debate

whether these guys
really deserve to win
or they ought to whisked
off to the loony bin

Is there at all for
Our country any hope?
I can hear u all answer
In a single word – nope

A fact that binds
each of these guys
Is that they each produce
a large number of lies

The exact number would
no doubt exceed
The number of feet you
See in a centipede

The comforting thought
In all this fuss
Is, they’re ruling the country
And not really ‘us’

By this what I intend
to actually mean
Is that we can choose
to be the king or the queen

We can lead our life
The way we want
even if these guys
do continue to haunt .

I’m tempted to continue
This interesting debate
Alas! it’s a tragedy,
But my bus won’t wait !

Earlier i used to send all my poems to a yahoo id that i'd created only for that purpose. Of course, Murphy's law intervened, and the account expired:( Ever since, i've tried to keep a safe backup.

Dude, I too used to have a healthy respect for our PM. I still do feel he's a very respectable person. But of late, largely thanks to initiatives of certain ministers of his cabinet, I wonder if all that respect is indeed his due.

Not so for the President tho. Respect levels are still same.
