FAILED PROMISES

Failed Promises
www.facebook.com/WRRPoetry [Failed Promises]
How can we score goals
On turfs devoid of posts?
They shift the unseen goal posts
Making targeting unrealistic

Yesterday, they brought this policy
Backed with a seductive premium;

The rots, the decays
The comatose
Failing of our infrastructures
Epileptic power that blinks
Like a million candlestick in the wind
What about our morgue-hospitals
Awful, cratered roads
On which we die?

And the mafias in Justice’ camp
Always at the behest of the politricking,
Thieving , manipulative ruling class…
All these malign our national fabric!

An insurance policy thrusted on us
In perpetuation of their misrule and the
Prompt delivery of unfulfilled promises!
