It's High Time It Ceased

Hydra-headed monster, corruption
The master of our nation
In our face and all facets
Our progress' pace, it dictates.

Now it's normal, by christening
Made formal by rebranding
Existing laws are bypassed
News ones? Not needed!

Clerics, step up your say
Teachers, justify your meagre pay
At home, young minds must be disabused
This game, it's high time it ceased!
