THE TRAGEDY..PART II 

Dr K Prabhakar Rao 

Constitution of India has miserably failed

To give India a good government

Innocent are found framed and jailed

And we go through periodic parliamentary tournament

Elders contest not from their area

Scared of loosing precious deposit

Gullible people of distant ands

Make them win under shadow of deceit

Parties fight bitterly as cats and dogs

With speeches full of choicest and filthy abuse

However at parties they eat like hogs

As urchins gather to collect roadside refuse

Parties biting at each others throat

Gang up at the end of national election

National interests are thrown into deep moat

As poor reduced to moving skeletons

Criminals, thugs, thieves robbers and dacoits

All are found in the election fray

Indian masses are thoroughly exploited

As killers ad thugs have their sway

Great Churchill surely is having the last laugh

Know, his predictions have become very true

Destitute Indians are down with woofing cough

While leaders are stuck to seats with sticky glue

Gone are the days of some glory in parliament

When some great men walked in the corridors

Saddest days of election tournaments

Today bring in the shady as the crusaders
