Rent-a-chappal





















Suresh Kalmadi was not dismayed, 
When a chappal* was lobbed his way, 
He demanded a pair,
Of the thrower's footwear,
To rent at three thousand a day.
Chappal=slipper

CD Baat or "Seedhi Baat"

















Amar Singh missed the media limelight, 
Flashing a CD, he began a fight,
Did he doctor conversations,
Or concoct allegations,
Have his mental faculties taken flight?

Cash Cows



Amma promised her farmers free cows,
To yield returns better than the Dow,
Sixty thousand bovine
Are hard to assign;
O Jayalalitha, the question is how.

Ambulance Income Delivery System



















You're moaning with pain in your bed,
The hospital you await with dread,
Sirens screech and crash,
Ferries you to an election booth instead.
