Corruption and trading on rules
In third world countries
The positioned officials trade on rules,
Needy people buy convenience
Paying bribe and making system fool.
Bureaucrats, authorities, politicians
Think them powerful to do things above law,
Make money for their lavish living;
Their near and dear also they can reward.
Due to authorities laxity, indifference,
Loose control, own greed and no transparency
Officials hide rules and exploit
Innocence, emotions, difficulty and urgency
Treating own egg they demand
For grant of license, work, privilege, quota, land,
Certificate, waiver of condition,
Evasion of tax or fine and punishment avoidance.
Scammers, black money earners
Acquire major resources depriving the masses
They grab power to manipulate
And force to pay higher price, by poor classes.
As powerful, is the authority
As high the rate of ransom or commission,
Rate too varies on rule distortion
Change, relaxation or favourable interpretation
