On the water body
stands a building
tall and sturdy
majestic and fascinating
being one of importance
hosts the city council
I bring this to reference
one that has to counsel
has breached the norms
construction on the lakes
has been prohibited in all forms
yet the Civic body pays no stake
erected its administrative office
over the beautiful water source
a threat to the building in a fix
could collapse anytime in the course
at times of heavy rain in years
the water could not flow into the storage
it goes unruly and in a slipshod causing a fear
the floods overtake and create a rummage
a mishap of great magnitude as such
death of man and cattle accounts too much
loss of money and belongings to one and all
besides a disaster and a devastation beyond a call.
