no changes now, the die is cast.
Time and again people did declare
that they were in need of basic care.
Knowledge and culture put to waste -
Few centuries of political distaste.
Some at the helm, some true leaders -
some sold country to its highest bidders.
Some early in their life took a bullet,
while some were busy filling their wallet.
We are in our life, what we are in deeds -
The dutiful does as one's country bids.
They have no glamour for the pyre
but their legends live beyond the fire.
