Ode To Elections and Presidents

How do we elect all Presidents? It is incredibly simplistic. We go to urns and cast our votes in. 'But why?' I asked myself this question Incessant multitudes of times; in sorrow. All politicians, including presidents, And, by their own admissions later, In their memoirs and sudden recollections Are incorrigible occupational fibbers. We always take what they promulgate During election’s lengthy process With hugest grain of salt and still, At the end of it, we learn it all in books… Titled the same: ‘I would if I could! But I couldn't, so I didn't!’
