Insufficient water goes to the cultivating fields
While the High Officials
(Or) Political Leaders
plan for some projects,
the main idea is to fill their pockets
with a percentage of profits,
the Officials become fat and rich,
the funds for the schemes
go thin and lean;
As if the water from the main source
from the dams to the fields goes scarce,
The bunds on both sides of the channel
absorb the water in full; the insufficient
water goes to the cultivating fields
resulting in dry crops with poor yields.

The human element should be the two players on the court, not the officials. The best officials are the ones you never notice. The nature of the game made officials too noticeable a part.

Well, a special screening was set up for government officials, so they didn't have to see the experience of going to see the film. They certainly aren't going to the projects to see for themselves the situation.

Of all the inventions that have helped to unify China perhaps the airplane is the most outstanding. Its ability to annihilate distance has been in direct proportion to its achievements in assisting to annihilate suspicion and misunderstanding among provincial officials far removed from one another or from the officials at the seat of government.

Police officials routinely execute search warrants on private homes and offices, and Congressional offices should not be treated any differently. There cannot be one set of rules for elected officials and another set of rules for everyone else.

What's Been Done Has Been Done
For the first time they all sat,
Together...
In an obvious nervousness.
No longer separated,
By lines of divisions.
Or seats that depicted them,
In political affliations.
The beginning of a seriousness has begun.
And arguments of special interests...
Is slowly ending its run!
For the first time they all sat,
Together...
In an obvious nervousness.
No longer separated,
By lines of divisions.
Or seats that depicted them,
In political affliations.
And a leader states,
'Whether you like it or not...
You are going to grow up.
Whether you like it or not...
Your petty stuff has been enough.'
The beginning of a seriousness has begun.
And arguments of special interests...
Is slowly ending its run!
The streets are in shambles.
And those rich believe they can not be touched.
The funds needed to repair and correct despair...
Is going to take what some have.
And what they have must be given up.
What needs to be fixed,
Is going to come out of pockets.
Out of the pockets of those who leech.
Out of the pockets of those who fed on fat.
And they are among the elite.
The streets are in shambles.
And those rich believe they can not be touched.
The funds needed to repair and correct despair...
Is going to take what some have.
And what they have must be given up.
For the first time they all sat,
Together...
In an obvious nervousness.
No longer separated,
By lines of divisions.
Or seats that depicted them,
In political affliations.
The beginning of a seriousness has begun.
And arguments of special interests...
Is slowly ending its run!
What's been done has been done...
And now the time has come to undo it!

Where is the future?
If we legalize abortion,
if we legalize prostitution,
Not that I'm perfect but I have to know the truth
Where is the future
if we have corrupt police officials
what about government officials?
What went wrong on the taxi industry?
are all drivers violent?
That's the only answer I know 'NO'
Why are our streets full of kids and adults?
Where are they from?
These are the questions without answers.
I couldn't hold my tears when I saw a poor child in the street.
Where is the future of Africa?
we still have racism.
I stand where I stood with my very first question
where is the future?

I believe that presidents up through and including George Bush have known that Americans were left alive and in violation of law, these high officials and certain of their appointed subordinates have continued and perpetrated a cover up of this reality.
Exhibition
Exhibition shows
Problems of climate change.
Man runover road
Accident show
Management failure.
Seminars lecturers
No use without practicability.
Faulty banking
Invite economic crisis.
We the poets scientists
Lack observation.
The officials leaders
busy in functions
This global exhibition.

Occupy' Ghosts Of King Jackson Liberty Call
A strong nation
must be more
than an elite 1%
who own 30%
of the nation
favoured status
under George W. Bush
as his personal pals
exempt paid no taxes.
Zillions more hidden
in corporations slush funds
tax free back handers.
NYPD protecting clients who?
In force mob attacking a lone
female cyclist wearing a hoodie?
Watch NYPD baton
strike a protestor hit
on head with baton...
in Oakland at 14th and Broadway?
Bad cops hiding behind shield thugs?
Good citizens you pay their salary?
Sitting on the fence is not
empowerment path to freedom
is self determination not!
Democracy justice equality
will not miracle jump out of hat!
We are the nation people 99%.
Do you want your guaranteed
civil constitutional rights?
Mask your mouths as NYPD
tear gases peaceful protesters;
if your in danger on the side lines?
On the high moral ground we
few will stand unbowed
before NYPD armor guns shields.
Just as ancestors at Lexington
Massachusetts faced an unjust foe.
Faced fears to earn a land of the free.
No oppression of all political dissent.
Targets leaders isolate arrest kill leaders.
British at Concord could find no leaders.
Get on facebook tweeter thumb hand phones.
Beware police government spy officials
who go around asking 'Who is the leader? '
Elite want someone to point finger at.
A traditional top down leadership
is easily decapitated silenced leaderless.
But 'Occupy' has no single leader.
We are the nation the people 99%.
'We are not one person or one idea.'
'We are everything and everyone.'
An elite 1%? 'They don't really care about us'
'I believe in miracles.... I ain't scared of no sheets'
'It doesn't matter if you black or your white'
'equality... either your wrong or your right'
'See, it's not about races, just places, faces'
'I'm not going to spend my life being a color'
Tell capitalist exploitative racist illuminati...
'It doesn't matter if you black or your white'
You killed King Jackson we continue their fight.
My friend take hope take heart take action.
Ghosts of King Jackson Liberty call. Who will march?
We are everywhere we cannot united lose!
Because Michael Jackson believed in you, was character assassinated by the illuminati, fighting for rights for you; a tribute to Michael has been written, quoting his own words, into this poem.

Power of Corruption
In the corrupt countries
positioned officials trade the rules,
make money from needy people
sell convenience making system fool.
Bureaucrats, police, politicians
think powerful to do things above law;
make money for their lavish living
their near and dear also, they reward.
People pay bribe to make work easy
and avoidance of punishment;
the officials accept happily, to fulfil
lavish needs and make life decent.
Due to authority's laxity, indifference,
own greed and no transparency;
officials hide rules and exploit
innocence, difficulty and urgency.
Law is as their own egg, they sell
for grant of work, privilege, license
quota, land, avoidance of punishment
evading tax or fine and Govt. payments.
Scammers and black money earners
acquire resources depriving the masses;
they grab power too to manipulate and
force to pay higher price, by poor classes.
Deputed to defend law, but hidden outlaw.
in public eyes, desirous of looking good.
Robbing Government, deceiving people
wish to be ‘white collared Robin Hood'.

High office teaches decision making, not substance. It consumes intellectual capital; it does not create it. Most high officials leave office with the perceptions and insights with which they entered; they learn how to make decisions but not what decisions to make.
