The sky's calmness

Corruption, a constant disgrace for the inhabitants of the country involved. The result of presidents who finally become dictators, they have misused the people´s trust. Thank you so much for sharing this still most important laden problem in a non democratic country. A 10 Full Score.

A fitting analogy of corruption, it is a stain that seeps into the roots of a nation and corrupts its very citizens of its immortality. A fitting work, so much of the worlds leaders from democratic electorates have become no better then despots. The corruption continues, the closing lines are so fitting, if we let that stain continue we soil ourselves. Excellent Poem Rose Marie!

Corruption is so rampant in the modern world in every walk of life! That is a fast spreading epidemic, obstructing the world's onward progress! Unfortunately it is not confined to any particular group! It has infested everyone from top to bottom, especially the ruling class! Like a dark cloud shadowing the sky, corruption is defacing the entire mankind! Great comparison!

Corruption, sad to say, has been in man's mind since time immemorial. Human is selfish and has excessive desire for more of something than is needed. His deeds are motivated by naked ambition and greed. A powerful write, dear Ate Rose........A full 10+++++
