The Islamic Republic of At least-istan

More Sweetly Play the Dance by Willian Kentridge

At least he isn’t corrupt,

his English and handsomeness

are also a plus.

Since time immemorial,

women and minorities

have been shunned.

Also, god complex, suits men.

At least they put nation’s money,

To good use,

Albeit on a certain province.

Being privileged and tone-deaf

aren’t crimes really.

Child pornography are

International issues indeed.

Well, at least he knows politics,

If he is a shit show of a person,

Who really cares?

Besides, he stands on the shoulders

Of two “martyrs.”

And his son knows

The foreign tongue,

Might even have a fancy degree.

At least they died for the country,

Don’t you dare speak ill

Of the dead peeps.

Bhai, Bhai, Bhai,

Even the god doesn’t listen to muhajireens

But he does,

He may send his love

in a bori,

But all is fair in love, sorry.

At least they have the country’s back,

Who else safeguards you

When you Netflix and chill?

Waise, they entertain too,

With their dramas and movies.

Shall we not chant:

Glory, glory, glory!!?

What does it matter

If they control and establish,

The ground rules, the land, and deals?

Who told you it was your war anyway?

Just be there when called

For sacrifices and to pay,

Whatever results from the actions of your lords,

You bloody beggars, and stupid pawns!
