Maitreyee Joshi Explores the Power and Reality of Democracy 🌍

No, no, there are no blind men. <br />There are men and women. <br />And not six, but billions of them. <br />No, no they are not insane. <br />They can see and smell. <br />And they can hear and feel. <br />And, yes they can think. <br />But, are they required to be blind, <br />To have a difference of opinion? <br /> <br />But yes, there is an elephant, <br />Mighty and dark. <br />And there is chaos and confusion, <br />And perpetual difference of opinion.. <br />So, for the lack of attention, <br />The elephant runs amok, <br />Helter-skelter and tramples people. <br />But in all this rampage, <br />There are few goons, <br />Who, put a facede of being always in control. <br />They call themselves politicians. <br /> <br />You ask, '' why the parody of an age old story.' <br />So, I impishly reply, ''This is a euphemism, <br />For the democracy in our country.''<br /><br />maitreyee joshi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/democracy-16/
