Any Honest Politician Left?

My grandfather used to say: "All politicians are born in the same village".

————

It is a tricky moment when

you start to navigate 

your path to success and try

to stay in the middle; 

and still willing to go ahead.


The better you get, 

the more free-riders hang up on your neck; 

jump on your back, try to blind your eyes;

and direct in their favor Your Day.

Their manipulations go in every possible way.


Politicians? - During their actions, they unfold 

a whole galaxy of corruptions

- you name it, they have all variety of them.

In your turn, you need Diogenes’ lantern

to walk and yell: “Any honest politician left?”
