FLOOD VICTIMS
Poem by Chan Mongol
June 24 of 2022
Some are busy in one side with own national pride;
In the other side, due to flood, countless died.
You can feel proud if you can uphold the divinity;
Nationality and the rest
are filthy, dirty, insanity!
What was important, to save lives or to uphold the pride?
Flood victims didn't have boats to float though they tried!
For the right to express, many people don't regard;
To understand cowardice of those cowards is absurd!
And handful lower caste, few always easily suppress;
Therefore, those few dare to ill govern and oppress!
Few wicked and low class belong to the low caste;
Why most people give wrong people votes and vow trust?
A riverine country gave up using boats in the water season;
They dried up rivers, canals, ponds for hi-rise foundation.
