If raped by politicians
a poem by R.A. Jacob
If raped by politicians,
Do not raise your voice,
They will kill your father in custody,
Put your relatives on trial.
The truck will lose control,
Hit your car head-on,
Everyone will go scotch free,
You too would be gone.
Mind you they are not Baba,
Who will, in prison, land,
They are the royal rulers,
If only you can understand.
When it comes to teachers
We want a hundred laws,
When it comes to elections,
We need no laws.
Even criminals can fight elections,
What a wonderful land,
Neither could I understand it,
Nor would you understand.
R.A.Jacob
