The Accusation
piteous is thine case oh constitu!
Thou upholder of the fundermental right of thine land
The sole inspiration of the activists
Who advocate equity in the land's cream and candy
What thine mighty effort still turns offence
At the rapacious pillars of the land
And in collusion hath thou impose an accusation
Accusation of an ailment,
Ailment of the belly
Drag to theatre
Constitu inside the room
Flatly on the bed
Is this the theatre or an abattoir?
But qualities are missing!
Where is the lancet?Where is iodine?Where is spirit?
Oh all are not!
IS this a surgical operation or brutish slaughter?
Why must knife?Why must cutlas?Why must dagger?
Nerves are maimed!Muscle mltilated!Strenght is off!
Activist in mute!Equity is gone!Candy in danger!
Cream in peril! Land dwellers in pain!Pillars are fat!
Oh constitu!Could you please recover,
And becomes your real name----Constitution?
