Currency vs Ballot

a poem by Lakshminarayana K

“I’m the money mighty and rich
Favour the bold, and I bewitch
The global brains for arms nuclear
Rule the world sans tear and fear”.
“I’m the Ballot, valiant, valid
The friend of all; a pyramid
Of passionate emotion my nature; so
Can I conquer all the wee”.

“I’m safe in the Swiss banks, they hide,
Dwell in the purse happy and pride
You’re imprisoned, strangled at times
In the wily chains of political crimes”.
“My presence and power often erupt
To dispel all the vice and erupt
To dispel all the vice and corrupt
Favour the best and render the truth
I dare to speak out all the untruth”.
