Elections Are Cool

Elections are cool, Elections are sweet

Politics is cool, Politicians neat

Tells us what is wrong, how to make it right

How it’s only ours - the really good fight

Point to the splinter in our brother’s eye

Our three fingers accusing in reply

Some other horror the hullabaloo

The cruel compliant and obliging too

Because Elections you must understand is clue

How plausibly impossible your due

‘Win at any cost’ ethic become battle-cry

Jumping into the fire from the pan’s fry

No self-reflection, no hindsight

No bringing what really matters to light

The trampled bloom under fearful flock’s feet

The black sheep the tormentor’s treat
