Corruption
Corruption devours
country's wealth and resources
bringing poverty
to common people
the backbone of society
who put their full trust
on the government
to take care of all their needs
in the social sphere
social malady
infecting most officials
in public office
Kings and ministers
presidents and senators
members of congress
all vulnerable
to this infectious syndrome
affecting morals
from the highest post
to the lowest positions
corruption prevails
money and power
are great means in politics
to stay powerful
can corruption die?
how to stop this endless greed?
for power and wealth
