Fix the country. Fix the country?

"We can't become what we need to be by remaining what we are." - Oprah Winfrey

As this is in the trends I just had to put my own transparent thoughts out here. Remember the polls? Well I am on the shy side of apathy when it comes down to polls. Call me a cynic. Just like our habit of dropping the sachets at the funeral grounds, the country would be where we are until we start putting them in our bags for proper disposal.

What can we say?

You can be real dirty

Only we see your sanctimonious airs of supposed transparency

Before the polls

You make great promises of progress

You are the Moses, sent to save us!

You're Josiah, you reform!

Before the polls

Perpetuating propaganda slyly

Rigging to make right Pharoah's wrongs

Believe, believe! Believe in me

You say

We do, we don't. We've been here

But hope dares to draw us to your side

Who knows? you could be different

After the polls

We're still where we are

What can we say?

We saw it coming.

I wrote this poem at one church meeting. You'd be surprised what your subconscious is cloaking.

Enjoy. And these days I am an optimist too. I believe we as an individuals can make a ripple in our pool. We could start by planting some fruit trees on our birthdays and our deathdays. For our dead,I mean.
