Carrot, Parrot, Carat

CBI, says Supreme Court, is a caged parrot,
Out they get a big stick, in a juicy carrot;
‘Hearts’ are quietly changed here,
Friends and foes to save and sear;
And as minions purloin carrot, and the fair queen, carat,
To the throne gifted him, clutches a beakless parrot.

Abhishek Quake

Grinning, in his High Court chamber, undressed Singhvi Abhishek,
In trust he thrust, but a secret camera caught his bare ass shake;
Fake! he raged, it's a private matter;
Press he gagged, couldn't internet chatter.
When people rage, no boss or judge can save you from the quake.

Mr. Big Sugar

Mister Big Sugar is minister of agriculture,
He swoops down on big bucks like an old vulture,
Exports are a roaring,
Prices are a soaring
No sweat, plucking to the bone is 'Pawar' culture.

Manmohan, the flying duck

Manmohan says he is Minister Prime and not a lame duck:
Would I have survived if so much blame I couldn’t well duck?
Reddy, media or Kalmadi,
They are all in Sonia’s rave party;
With BJP numb and Rahul dumb, wingless I am flying on luck!

Sibal Society

We have a cabinet minister who thinks he's a big hero,
All because after every theft he avers the loss is zero,
Be it a bill or a dacoity
,
His answer is Sibal, not civil, society
,
Thieving leaders will save India, he says, not an honest tyro.

Smarter bin Laden

Had Smarter bin Laden hit South or North Block,
He would still have been a hero roaming free in Pak or POK,
A few tiny squeals,
Not a thought of ‘Seals’,
We would still have been saying we have no choice but to talk.

Limerick: Mister Big Sugar

Mister Big Sugar is our minister of agriculture,
Food prices are soaring because he is the vulture;
He says he will feed
The poor who do bleed,
We know; plucking to the bone ain't corruption-culture.

Limerick inspired by ND Tiwari

Tiwari, eighty six, needed three girls tender a day three times
Testing fate the Governor was, tasting paradise before his time
But the camera caught
And reduced him to naught
What a time, he bemoans, even talking to a woman is a crime!

Warning: Humor Alert - May contains puns..

While it is amply evident from the Shashi Tharoor Twittergate episode that those in the Government do not appreciate humor, it is unlikely that you would find any humor appreciation classes or courses being held anytime soon for the political classes. Dr Shashi Tharoor got away with "control your tweets" kind of tip-off from the party leadership. But soon we may have a situation where humor content may be monitored and controlled!

Here's a limerick to prepare you for what's coming:
The Indian Government will appoint a moderator;
To scan columns n blogs sooner or later;
To look for that pun;
Where infact there's none;
And consign your post to the incinerator!
