the river of politics


The river of cloudy water
The dark brownish colour on it
Once it was a clear as the mirror
Now it looks as if life has lost

The fishermen stare unbelievable
Pointing fingers across the river
Don't they have something to do?
Fighting for a cause now abandoned?”

How could it happen?
With a year it makes us losing income
Yet we see them arguing
Of greed of power and wealth”

The river puts up a white flag
We can't breathe right now
Will you stop fishing here
We can't help you today”

The river of cloudy water
The fishermen pointing fingers
At the seat of power base
Sealed it off in high brick walls
