EQUITY ON ROCKS


Eyes draped in black,  
The Scale of Justice, stark and exact,  
Struggles with truth and fairness,  
In a land where might eclipses righteousness.

Justice delayed, where should we start?  
An alchemist’s touch to mend every part.  
Government's hollow promises,  
Culprits evade without consequences.

Corruption ingrained in every root,  
A Herculean task to uproot,  
Marks the end of democracy,  
And the rise of nation's hypocrisy.
