Least Developed Nations
Least Developed Nations
Engage in high corruption and wastage
Are featured by poverty amidst plenty
Senior officers are like bats in offices and survive
Through no or faked democratic elections
Developed Nations exploit them eloquently
Every form of treasure is mortgaged
Very few rulers dream of their dark hearts
Even the rulers are spanner-boys in their backyards
Low income per capita shows citizens are rats in a mosque
Organized kidnaps of opposition is game of amusement
Power is concentrated in the hands few man eaters
Economy is always bed-ridden in emergency wards and
Desire to change such governments is suicidal
None of the nations dreams of being a super power
Atomic or nuclear capability is exist as a myth
Time and again they fight proxy wars and are
Interested in doing the dying to make other nations great
Over-dependence and domination are a hobby
Nations in this category are often very wealthy but
Survive by carrying yawning bags to the land of everlasting rains
