Death of a traffic police
Muhammad Habibur Rahman
Woe betide the country! What a bad luck!
Where the traffic police is overrun by a truck!
Who made whose life miserable?
Did the traffic police make himself insufferable?
Please tell us, please describe
Did he demand more bribe
Than that was settled before?
And that the driver did deplore.
The police and the public carrier strive
Two together, they design and contrive.
Two together, they sink, float and survive.
Why did the truck driver hit
The traffic police to axe his feet?
Was he not an obliging conniver
Of rules, and his great defender?
If the traffic police becomes a lame duck
All the truck drivers may run amok.
Should a truck-driver be so foolish
To run over so casually a traffic police?Muhammad Habibur Rahman is former Chief Justice and head of caretaker government
