Building the State

I’ve done my part in building the state
Before I say a leave-taking
Even nobody ventures to say a word
I have known;
That I'm not a venture-someness
I gave people a venture capital to break their yokes.
This a short speech full of throw away lines
A chance to thumb my nose at the citizens
When I had to strain to reach the peak
And I have never been joking since all my life;
Read me even my handwriting straggled over the pages.

I thought I was snookered when they rejected my plans
That time I aimed at my intentions
By an authority as my straight- shooter
I made snow-job my tricks I called change
While they sniffled like pig after I snuggled into my office.
I snogged them in the straight-face
While I made snide remarks
And turned them into laws,
I’ve a sneaking attitude,
And I shouldn’t have paid them a dime like my colleagues
Who gloated over their ill-gotten money they snitched on juries
Unknowing that they too are ours.

I’ve done my part in building the state;
I renewed the schools and fed them twice daily
I bought school uniforms and materials.
I tried my best if nobody says well-done.

I constructed every good road
In your haste of speed, it’ll say; stop!
Don’t kill yourself.
The most reliable road,
Hmm… haven’t I done my part in building the state?
You’ve…
You did a nuclear holocaust in the state.
How dare you speak to government like that?
Driver, stop!
Arrest him!
It’s part of building the state.
