Veri too much

Aiyo, aiyo, why is he singing with so much kolaveri !!

No, not easy being a P-I-P (Person in Charge) these days.

Flying shoes, slaps... citizens are on the ready, expressing disenchantment with word and gesture.

And now ... smash hits that sing of ‘Veri’.

Dangerous word – ‘Veri’.

Could give people ideas – always a possibility when creative types fire the imagination of the many-headed.

Dangerous thing – Imagination.

Starts people thinking ...

Then who knows where that will lead?

Given that there’s so much to be ‘veri-ed’ about, perhaps they’ll go: Why only, why only, why only ONE veri, di?

(You’ll now have to do the beat in your heads, guys.)

Garbage pile-o-pile,

Potholes very danger,

Water everywhere, but not in tap u,

Encroachments ignored-u,

But nice buildings threatened-u,

Traffic rules-u

Non-existent-u

Prices rising

Simply no limit-u

Honest peoples no have money

But whom we trusted

Simply galtha-fy-ing-u

So very, very, very much to be veri-ed about, di ...

Hmmm ... word on the street is that authority figures are nervous, while crowned heads apparently sleep uneasy these days.

Well, that’s what happens when promises aren’t kept.

Will this New Year at least bring enlightenment?

The realisation that ‘Good Leader’ is a title to be earned ... not merely won like a prize in a contest?

Hopefully...

Then, life will be very good, and veri-less, no?
