Gandhi said 'be the change you wish to see',
That is for others but not for me.
I live in a big house with more than one loo,
But I aint going to say 'and so should you'.
I preach austerity that's what I do well,
I have an AC, washing machine; aint that swell?
I talk about equality, justice and opportunity lost,
The pay I give is lower than my laptop cost.
I talk about SEZ and acquisition of land,
A car manufactured in such a plot is my brand.
I think I live frugally and its for all to see,
I bought some land, I cant wait to be a retiree.
I zip across the world holding forth in foreign halls,
I make my money plotting capitalism's downfall.

So true what u said, Sad that India rich and well placed people have 2 faces, 1 public to preach and the other their personal lives
Hi Samir
The discrepant life is well depicted in the poem. I loved it
Simple, yet profound.
