November Elections
Elections …elections Long queues snake in a semblance to a line towards The place where voting happens, There’s a thrum of excitement, of possibility of a hoped for outcome Voting papers handed over Go to the closed off booth and stare at all of the names Finding the one I want and make my mark Done Fold up the sheet and push into the box Get my thumbnail marked And I’m off My vote counts, every vote counts, every voter should vote Then we would get whom we want in power
