MEDIATOR

You do possess the power and courage

to make a false a fact, a fact a fake,

to heighten or destroy one’s icon.

Still we try to know for knowledge’s sake.

Democracy does not stand for

limitless freedom in thought, speech and action.

Deterioration in the character of mediator

is catastrophic for a nation.
