A poem for Driti and his military regime

We must all agree that any military regime will exploit their people to remain in power. This poem often answers that question many often ponder. Why? POWER HUNGRY The men that have gained great power from the barrel of the gunUsually does not have the mind to use itThe ones that we have in Fiji at this hourDo nothing more than abuse it. They tip the scales in their favourTo get just what they want and needThey do it to no regard to our futureBecause they are only driven by greed They use the people they controlLike pawns in a game of chessTo pull you into an empty holeAnd make your life a mess What makes a man’s heart turn sourAnd choose to take the wrong roadNothing but the hunger for money and powerAnd the yearning to be in control
