What about Bangladesh?
Part 2 By © Muhammad Haque
2355 Hrs GMT London Monday 29 December 2008
Will the people of Bangladesh get a better deal
after they gave of their trust to these latest poll?
Who will be pulling the strings?
Who will seek what private deal?
Who will get busy and steal
the most the temporary thaw provides
before almost sure exposure arrives
and the plan goes really awry?
Who can resist? And not try?
Who will not draw that unholy cue
from the results; and resolve to view
the outcome as nothing more
than a rare chance to restore
what ought never to have been lost
what ought always to attract the most
attention, recognition and reference
what ought to be given due reverence
the sanctity of public office and power?
Who will not let office and greed devour
what humility even insecurity they felt
prior to sudden power under their belt?
