Votes Giving Goats

Do not waste your vote, all say
But, who shows the right way?
All politicians are fully corrupt
The Nation may face bankrupt

If you elect kindly Mr. X
He will be weak in sex
On the other hand Mr. Y
Will make Justice die

If you make your vote invalid
Again you prove to be stupid
As someone will put your vote
This you may not even note

When cut-throat people rule
They will make you a fool
In case you are educated
Your ideas will be cremated

Luck alone will place you there
Where Justice will prevail sir
In case you are not that lucky
Country will make you panicky.

Votes do count, but political parties negate any opportunity to vote for someone who favours constituents over party. Aloha!

If politicians decide even a donkey can inside parliament enter to reside to side with deep pride. Thanks.

Good one. It seems that sometimes we feel our votes doesn't count but it could be the one that tips the scale in a favor of the candidate that one's state or our country needs. Sara
