Election Day Wishes! Poem by Veeraiyah Subbulakshmi

Election Day Wishes!



At last the day has come for you all to decide,
Whom you like the most and want to elect,
Republicans speak the theory of convenience,
Completely forgot the cause of their creation,
Democrats also in the same vintage car,
Painted anew with policies of their own and desire,
Left or right or in the middle, the notion is the one,
Poor should be controlled with the wealth of thin lollypops,
make them to suck more to extract the holy tax,
the rich and businessmen have holes to hide and escape,
the poor are exposed to day's sunlight and night's xenon,
Dreams are left for them to dream to get rest and relax,
On the shores of tiredly uniform low cost vision fares,
Extra size for extra fat, if lead sedentary life,
Extra drugs for the weak, who are strong to get the kick,
As long as children are safe and grow up to be old,
To follow the dream of the ancestral traits,
Not to look before you leap, you are the guardian,
Angels, holding the batons to threaten the world.

Happy Election Day to all Americans! !
