Democracy

Democracy! A name which has suffered ignominy A sound which has become ignoble A song which can only be hummed. Its hotchpotch has gone through hypothesis And its effective cause of hostilities. Democracy! Turned to a hopscotch Its teaching now in heresy with people's ideas Its flaws becoming hobby-horse in hogmanay Higgledy-piggledy it becomes in the city, 'Cos its heyday is gone. Democrazy it is in the hands of exponents Like a shy with its helmsmen. Democracy! A noble man with no esteem Principle with no privileges for all Exciting story with a sad denouement A deodorant full of irritation Beauty, but ephemeral.
