Uneducated Elite

Have read a lot about rights
give lectures on everything
written theories and practices
framed intricate plans
quote scriptures and ideologies
could be celebrated authors
but look at human relations
measure charity to the needy

In sack cloth and ashes
will be your lamentations
what is clear is dubious
common sense hardly there
rat-cat relationship exists
common problems nightmare
the rest better untold
These uneducated elites
do harvest unrestricted
fruits of their inhumanity
