Senate After Spiritual Awakening

Its election time, its hide and seek playtime
Post victory candidates were hiding, now seeking voters time

Ruling candidates are debating, bragging about turnaround  
Opposition candidates pointing debacles, for a chance begging around 

Begging circus rampant, Websters to add begging to election meaning 
Unemployed youths with begging bowl, vying entry in new meaning 

Save Tigers campaign is on, wish Politicians were extinct without campaign 
Tigers attack when hungry, Politicians attack hungry voters throughout reign 

God allotted Voters nano chip, but for change prefers calamity to election
God is abstaining from voting, all candidates as good as Satan 

Public service motto, Politicians have forgotten with fame and money ill-gotten
Senate after Spiritual awakening seems to be only answer to cleanse the rotten
