Sandanista

Waltzing on bracken and shingle,
Dirt scuffed and spun in the air,
As the blood and the dust devils mingle,
Drying, infused with despair.
The crackling twigs in the campfires
Spat out the legends of old;
The wind blew the ash of those campfires
Until all those ashes grew cold.
Whispered in tongues of black humour,
Polemics of demons and dread,
And freedom became but a rumour, 
Butchered dreams in a dead man’s head.

Elections

Atime for wooing voters
selling dreams
Floating manifestos
A season of paying whirlwind visits
To the farthest corner of 
constituency
Time for defacing walls with posters,
polluting public mind with party propaganda
For buying ballots with petty gifts:
Blankets,wine bottles,currency notes
A carnival for double voting,shanghaing,
murdering rival candidates-
A platform for indulging into polemics,
mudslinging.
Demagogue's favourite festival
