Academics turn politicians
Pale with shame,
Expert handlers of students
Enhance election mania magically.
Who is your friend or foe?
Difficult to tell dear,
Options alluringly change
As seasons amidst uncertainties.
All advocating amity
Artistically practice untouchability;
Reformers on the run
Avid operators on the rise.
Enlightened souls inimical
Camaraderie on the wane;
Friends for long years
Turn sworn enemies suddenly!
What for all this?
How long this game, dear?
Nothing lasts long
Ephemeral image mesmerizes!
