Our Political Participation

I've come to say a few things about our political involvement, Important is this because our future is on the edge of precipice, And is dangerously tilting irreversibly towards enslavement, If urgently not arrested we pay the unholy bitter Price. How easily a people once astute and meticulous, Got swerved towards the edge of political escarpment, Punders sane mind, so absurd and so ridiculous, Though it be inflicted by unnegotiated predicaments. Then make I bold to interrogate and not to despair, To investigate, scrutinize and not to speculate, Prescribing solutions so simple and so straight, Least I be misjudged and suspiciously at glared. Despise not that which I say because of its simplicity, For truths, real truths unadulterated are always simple, And need not be subjected to unwarranted duplicity, But be accepted by souls learned and simple. Is this predicaments not caused by lack of participation? Was it not caused by poor political permutations? Are we not plagued by lack of proper political calculation? When against action we choose unfounded speculations. Have we not indulged so much in self aggrandizement? Have we not taken the destructive path to political oblivion? Have we not despised the Zikist ideology and movement, When we choose "sit at home" in every election? Refused we not to galvanize 20 million votes for our leaders? Have we not disdainfully despised our leaders, And make it practically impossible to organize us? When we claimed that politics is not for us? What else on the negotiation table do we bring, Except the uncalculated threats of secession? What if on the table 20 Million votes we bring? That would grant all our interests protection. Oh! What is he saying? Does it really matter? All we want is our freedom from this contraption, Their political system is bedeviled with corruption, So we do not want to get involved in their matter. In the final analysis it does not really matter, What the political system is - whether it be perfect. We do not need perfect political systems, We need political participation that's perfect. I say this one and I cease to say no more, I Say not everything for want of time and space, But that we participate even as we continue to ask for more, As people of peace who for others set the pace.
