POLITICAL MAN

This man stands unremittingly, man
Cursed by the battles of what is, life
His wound’s ache innately tightly tan
A political man tie to it like a penknife
In a marriage enunciated as, torment
Piercing the streetwise jabs of hustle
As deadly as a sin to be, not meant
Cruelly crippled by this crunch tussle
A shout from the podium of maverick:
Run to the godly building of union!
And steal seats of men of prattle crick
To rip the mouths that tell an opinion
A shame on men standing bare without
This march getting steeper, not nicely
Obscured with a panty and thrown out
The battle lingers on as fire, uncomely
As a gyrating juju’s jamming jamboree
Political jujuism vanquishing the magic
Corruption on its own to a low degree
Marking schemes, blushingly gigantic
In capital cities of grand capitalism
This political man red in egotistic fat
Polishing the blacken shoes of schism
This man stands rebellious – with act
