Dr John Celes - Sonnet: On Corruption Today

God, thwart the moves of men with minds insane; br Their corruption has reached enormous heights; br And masking all their crimes, righteous they feign; br Ill-gotten wealth, giving them sleepless nights! br br How long this land can bear their insults, Lord? br How longer must the poor suffer hard-ships? br The corrupt own most resources, O God; br Most transactions are carried out by ‘tips’! br br The people have been cheated for ages; br The poor are made poorer by corrupt men; br The employees get paid paltry wages.
