Best Voting Poems
Voting Day Is Near AcrosticVoting time is upon us
One time when we can choose who should govern
The time that many wish they could have but it is forbidden
I will be there to cast my ballot; I will not neglect this privilege
Not let Nellie McClung and the 5 down; cannot...

Eu Voting SongJolly voting weather
We are all europhiles
We’re very clever
And lie to you all the while
You fell for our promise especially the CAST IRON trick
We’re all from Eton, and you lot are all too thick.
If you think I’ll claim back powers,
You haven’t got a...

Voting With Our FeetIt seemed to me,
when I was eight,
U.S. Christian disciples and teachers
had been given so much grace
And had fundamentally boiled it down
to settling for such small subcontinental WhitePatriarchal colonizing gratitude
for God's universally healthy
multicultural EarthTribes.
It was so simple,
when I was of sufficient college-bound age,
to simply shop around
play...

Why let her experience go to waste
Hillary in Presidency should be placed
Time for woman in White House being
My wife and I have been agreeing
And to voting booth we both raced.

VotingVoting
By Franklin Price
6/30/2015
Voting is the best of ways
to say what's on your mind.
If you don't go to the polls,
what you have is what you find.
A government elected
not by majority,
but by the few who turned out,
sounds like a joke to me;
I can understand...

Voting Booth ConversationMy African-American
young adolescent daughter,
since she was age five
needing a therapeutic home and family,
with Oppositional Disorder
and deviantly diverse neural-cognitive communication patterns,
would have voted for Donald Trump if she could.
In large part,
I suspect and fear,
because she is obsessively attracted
to what and whom she knows is bad for...

Voting In NovemberVoting in November
By Franklin Price

Voting in November
Is a very scary thing
Especially for the president
What will either of them bring?
He is quite outspoken
To the point of stupidness
Due to investigations
Her position is a mess
To have belief in either
And what they have to say
Could have us...

Pennsylvania's Voting DayBarack Obama is a candidate who I like to promote.
On April the 22nd, he'll need Pennsylvania's votes.
If he wins, he will be a great leader for the USA.
He's a man who won't lead this country astray.
When push comes to shove,
he's a person to be proud...

Voting For Spendy or Spender
Most votes went to Spender or Spendy
While few went to Thrifty
Who couldn’t keep pace
And fell out of the race
For he came up lame
Right during the game
But what was his name?
Who cares
Speaking of who cares
About Spendy or Spender
Because either of them
Will go on spending benders
Just to...

The Blind ManThe blind man
walks slowly to the voting polls,
reaches for a lever
and pulls it.
There! Now I’ve voted.
I’m a good citizen.
Leaving, he stumbles
and falls into my arms.
Did you vote today?
No, I’m not blind.

Anything Goes -- 2020 Election Version(Updated in such form that Cole Porter would sue)
[Intro]
Times have changed
And we've often rewound the clock
Since Nixon got the shock
When he crashed on Daley’s bloc
If today
Any shock they should try to stem
'Stead of crashing on Daley’s bloc
Daley’s bloc would crash on them

Power of the Ballot BoxTo live with victory won by the sin of cheating,
corruption becomes physically manifest -
unethical, corrupt political leaders might triumph,
and our Constitution and National Security put at risk.
Our legal Absentee Balloting process could be unlawfully
augmented with millions of “mail-in” ballots
“box-dropped”, harvested, and delivered to political...

Letter To Kenyan VoterI quit
I throw my hands down
and sit, sometimes
they called for reconciliation without
justice
They called for justice without
truth
Now they ask for prayer without
confession, umpteenth,
it chafes
Has dishonesty made you inadequate
to let go the desecration
infringement
negligence
graft
shame of these violations
which bake violence?
Yet another fifth year
