In the future Elections will be Every 10 years Held on TV A One Night Spectacular! No pre-election campaigning With phone or online votes After the leader’s debates Only those permitted To call themselves ‘Citizens’ Can participate Polling stations Are a thing of the past Mixing in public At such a sensitive time Will now be a crime Those no longer Citizens Held under tight control By the National Guard Candidates will present as before Like they are fighting to get Through that winning door Each stating that only they care For our country And for us ‘all’ No studio audience will be there The event will be filmed Beforehand In a secret location Probably a bunker Underground The safest place around Now that, Post-Blair Wars and suffering Blight our lands There will be nothing To choose between them As change is no longer planned Each part of the same Business led conglomerate Determined to keep control of our world Anna Archichek
