Democracy

A solemn voice declares that times have changed, and so has democracy,

Our words need to be respected, because we are the keepers of national interest.

Everything that the opposition leaders say is hokum.

  1. Reena,

    I am getting cynical in my old age.

    Mask Down

    Politics is just theatre,
    filled with smoke and mirrors,
    no one is ever who they seem .
    You know it’s a pile of hokum ,
    once you notice,
    they all play on the same team.
