Dear Politician

I don't want to kill you
I don't want to drive close to you just so that I can get a glimpse of your face
I don't want to salute you
I don't want to be do anything with you or your presence or your very existence

So will you please let me drive in peace without having me wait for hours to see your cars zoom past, and inevitably end up going late to work?

Yesterday, I had to wait for 20 mins on the road, in anticipation, like a pregnant lady in the labor ward. Will you ever come or not? Your sincere servants; traffic police and the entire police force; were standing in stark discipline, barely breathing, waiting to salute you. That's what you've made them.

But dear Sir, I'm not your servant. I don't see why I should be subjected to unnecessary waits in a jam packed road, for which Sir, you are the reason.

Where are you going? To make amends? To help the poor? To initiate development activities? To do something about the poor roads here? To do some good?

I assume, and forgive me for that, that since you hardly have the time for all the above activities, you're probably going to some place far off for a chit chat with your fellow colleagues, may be to discuss how you can loot us more.

Why don't you all fly in helicopters? I swear I can't afford one and I confess, I have no intention of blasting your plane down.

So, dear Sir, if you would please, not make me waste my fuel and incur more costs on my living, just carry on with your daily tasks without disturbing me, I'd appreciate that!
