Subject: June 12 Democracy Day: What did you do?
Democracy Day. What did you do
To keep hope alive
When the tired and the hungry knocked on your government door
What did you
To keep hope alive?
What did you do
When constituents knocked
in your door
With holes in their dusty shoes
From dusty roads
With pock marked pot holes
What did you do
To keep hope alive?
What did you do
When people knock
on your door
When hospitals cannot dispense
To cure lingering ailments
In the territory you govern
What did you do
To keep hope alive?
When thirst caused visions
And hallucinations
And parched tongues hung out
Like a canines tongue
In searing heat
What did you do
to keep hope alive.?
When voters cast their lot
With you
And saw in you
A redeemer from lifes
Myriad woes
What did you do
To keep hope alive?
Besides building palaces
And castles on the people's trust
Beyond living in opulence
From the peooles purse
What did you do
To keep hope alive?
