Assist to Autocracy

Destruction in the name of 'Aid'

By Mohd AhsanPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

The land was pale,

full of scars,

The dreams were broken

like a shattered glass,

‘Peace’ was promised

but was gifted treachery,

A revolution was declared

but a submission was enforced,

‘Modernism’ was the anthem

but suppression was their law,

Independence was declared

yet the souls were confined

Democracy was established,

But the corruption prevailed,

As the ‘Resistance’ was opposed,

The autocracy they practiced became exposed.
