let the new party take up the challenge



The election date
It will draw nearer each passing day
The knots in the stomachs
The politicians will wait

Some may disappear
Some may survive
When the names are released
Who will contest; who will drop

The voters have to decide
Get in the scandals; get in the shame?
Let the nation coffers sink low?
Let many laws to zip our minds?

The cheating games
The disparity in rural and urban votes banks
Even the postal votes too come to question
Even the civil servants are told which party to vote

When Parliament is dissolved
Most of the current members of Parliament
They will have to say their goodbyes
They may not step into Parliament again

This is the election
The country needs it to survive
The bad hats have to go
Let the new party take up the challenge
