Best Governance Poems
Peace Is Our GovernanceLove sets our hearts on fire,
not the city.
We abide by the eternal victory
set forth by life’s Word.
We are about the Lord’s business,
not the entanglement of choice,
not the frothing of the masses.
We kiss the feet of Jesus.
We don’t soak our own feet
while we spit hatred to...

Dramatic Monologue
Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves - Aka African GovernanceStanding in front of the hidden entrance
On horseback, with loud sacks
Clinking as loot hit loot.
With smiles of satisfaction adorning their faces
The chief said the magic words, and in went the team;
Safe from the spoiled, safe from the world,
Ready to go back out and lay misery...

GovernanceGood steward elevated by the people’s mandate
On assurances of selfless and patriotic services
Verifiable through implementation of rendered promises
Even when a term’s arrival meets nationwide turmoil
Re-strategizing can lift a country to the front seat again
And then all challenges and burdens becoming lighter and beatable
No nonsense accepted...

Earth GovernanceDiscerning one's universal right of conscience
forms comprehensive unitarian consciousness.
Or so we future hope
recognizing self-governing justice requires trust
in each eternal past moment's empathic truth,
rooted back in organic time
anchored in universal consciousness,
bicameral intelligence,
systemic awareness,
multicultural understanding
Universal awareness is
as unitarian conscience does
Remembering, too, democracy requires trust
despite each individual's trauma

Vote-bank thoughts and woes of dissent
Leave them lost mumbling excuses
Making quick bucks their time well-spent
Leaving behind SCAMS in excess.

psychologists,
philosophers,

PoliticsPolitics
Activities associated with
The governance of a country
As simple as
The administration of an organisation
But there is always power struggle
And greed for wealth
Politics become unusual
Because of power struggle
And greed for wealth
A sordid affair indeed
Conspiracy, canvassing
Scandal and bribery
All make things complex
And bring great sorrow to...

When Multiculturally PresidingAs no one
never said
about nothing,
"Calling in human health care options
