The Dangerous Politician Poem by Rose Marie Juan-austin

The Dangerous Politician

Rating: 5.0


He went to the masses
As a respectful and loyal servant
Gentle as the breeze that sweeps away pain
Extremely lovable like a lap dog
But a dark cloak
Covers his mind and heart
Ready to spread his wicked trap
Like a wild animal hunter
That lurks in the dark.

Is this about one certain politician, or just politicians in general? I suggest adding a poet's note with more info. Well written, in any case.

Good one. It reads like all politicians except Ms Adern of New Zealand. I wish she was the president of Zimbabwe

The " deep state" is precisely made of such politicians you describe here.

Politicians in general are notorious for their double dealing! Many of them are sheep in lion's clothing! They say one thing and do something else! You have beautifully exposed the real 'inside' of a politician who appeared so agreeable before others! Well done, dear friend!

It is the greed for power that makes a politician so corrupt and crude. Politicians all over the world are the same and play a double game. Their deeds are never their words or promises. Their power hunger makes them behave like a wild animal.........10. A powerful poem, dear Poetess Rose
