The Voter

OK I've thought about it
today's my day to vote
Studied all the propositions
the politicians wrote

Read this bill then read that one
as I tried to understand
What they really meant to me
and other's 'cross the land

I've listened to the rhetoric
for months they thrown the blows
As they countered one another's words
each having highs and lows

So now its down to two of them
which one will I pick?
It is my right to vote you know
yet they both make me sick

I think I'll write my own name down
Hah, the President I'll be
do all the righteous things for sure
and build a proud country

On second hand, forget that
for I am just a voter
Although I have the keys in hand
I cannot start the motor

I never thought I'd see the day
my passion has turned cold
An American I'm proud to be
but this is getting old

What's happened to true leadership
where's the charismatic few
Who brought our Nation dignity
and behind them, me and you

Perhaps on second thought
I'll just stay home and mope
And visualize a future
with very little hope

No! I must go out and do it
draw lines beside the names
otherwise it's all for naught
these patriotic games

Who wins or loses does not matter
it's what we as voters do
Do we hide behind excuses
or build our country new ?

Public thanks to Catzmeow for enabling me to make my goal of half a million credits by Xmas.

That was special.
