Throw all your masks

along with your faces

of fake smiles and snobbery looks.

your soothing words 

really add fuel to injuries

of your own wounds.

The reasons stem from your

own desires and  judgement

that your golden ballots

will fetch  an all-out sigh of relief.

But again and again it is a

Golden Knife

making you bleed with

rosy phrases of Democracy

as for the people and by the people

and the people endowed with

Ultimate Power.....

the tom-toming is going  on

And

trumpet is playing on !

Alas.and

The bills of their own

Whims and fancies

Roar and roar as "draconian Acts"

Rolling on the feeble and meek

Throats and voices of the very same

Golden Democracy.
