Perils Of Democracy
Perils Of Democracy
Democracy was born out of our inability & failure,
To understand the basic problems of humanity.
Democracy was born out of our sheer curiosity,
To enjoy the implications of uncontrolled freedom.
Democracy gives us "rights" to unfettered liberty,
But when "rights" multiply only to divide humanity,
There are wrongs beyond all rationality.
Democracy leads to divisions in human society,
Which in turn leads to wide cracks in human unity,
That poses a grave danger to sustainability.
Democracy is not at all free,
But comes with a heavy price,
That is costing us our lives,
Ironically we cast a vote,
Only to pay for our precious life.
Democracy supports all faiths,
But blatantly encourages odd faiths,
To the point of "pampered" secularity,
The conflicts & unreasonable demands that arise,
Helps us to fill our history books,
With modified versions & inputs to follow.
Democracy results in fights & quarrels,
Because we all agree only to "Disagree",
Thereby demonstrating our disrespect to the constitution.
Democracy distracts us from a sad reality,
The bankruptcy of ideas and intellect,
And our inability to think out of the Box!
