Politics is the science of statecraft. Politics is in oligarchy, in aristocracy Politics is in democracy, in meritocracy Politics is in theocracy, in totalitarianism Politics is in monarchy, in elite despotism Politics is the science of all Leadership Not devoid of all forms of dictatorship Not devoid of all forms of showmanship, Politics is the goodness in real statesmanship Not devoid of forms of crookedness in witchcraft. Politics is an art of wisdom It’s for wo(men) with divine wisdom It's for wo(men) with great mission It’s for wo(men) of true great vision, It flows from head of a great fe(male) gender It flows through hands of the Servant Leader Politics is played from the left or right wing Politics is for the Philosopher-Queen/King. Politics is the art of governing of men Politics is who gets what, how, when Politics is authoritative allocation of values Politics is full of surprises from the blues Politics is the art of the possible Politics is an art of the Honorable Politics is an art of the horrible Politics is an art of the terrible. Politics is an art of weaponization of economy By national, international merchants of hegemony Through slavery, colonization, apartheid, subjugation Which springs up people’s right to self determination Spirally leading to global meltdown and stagnation As in WWII, Nigerian-Biafran, Ukraine-Russian war When hunger turned legitimate instrument of war, Politics can bend state, national, international law. Politics flows through the barrel of the gun When elections were neither lost nor won During the era of the old modern time juntas Who were like ancient mindless head hunters Noted for barbarism, incompetence, gross misrule Yet they call others the zombies and bloody fool Politics is a good scientific field of study, Politics is sometimes violent, very very bloody. Politics flows though the fountain pen Flows through my fiery mystic fighting pen A fighting pen that shapes public opinion A pen that calls for socio-economic re-union A pen that calls for fairness and equality A pen that calls for justice and equity A pen which is mightier than the sword Willing tool in the hands of the wordsmith Politics flows from power, golden pen's word Politics is a priceless gift from Almighty God.
