---crude politics---

:;

we are tired of your plausible lies. .
And your exaggerated manifestos,
Your bloody-faced banners flying the skies.,
With political desperadoes. .

::

My people have embraced apathy,
Against your ulterior political party,
Since our votes have lost its voice,
In your ballot boxes . ,,

:;

Our ears itch at your campaign cries..
and cares'less who luck employ.,
The shrill  of a  looser's sigh
or victory's overwhelming joy.

:;

Your campaign posters,jealous death must draw,
Such brave race to polidoms..,
Where you seek to  enslave thy enchained kinsmen more.,
With fraudulent reforms.,

:;

Over zealous prodigals of cacophonous cabals .,
Immune envoys of national brouhahas.,
Sworn agents of economic stagnancy,
Aborting our dreams at pregnancy.



:;

Goodluck!  Athletes of death race!.
Crisscrossing paths and bruising toes,
lost in the madness of this goose chase.,
to your death throes,adieu!

:;

Shameless political uncultured touts..
with shallow cranium of the rules,.
all spurred by power' corrupting bouts,
Enchanted political vultures!
