AWARD WINNING POETRY BY SHEILA MALLIKARJUN

GRAMERCY! UNTO JUSTICE SHALL WE VOTE

Banners go up n speakers go up the air
As the light set up a glare,
Voices that start to blare
The voters do they ensnare.

The party men go up the stage
Senile decay declares their age
And yet somehow they manage ,
To promise manna moon and marriage.

Now comes forth big brother EC
Its not a task so easy,
Given the men so nosey
And the people so choosey.

Its indeed a buy election,
Where money does the selection
breaking many a restriction
A cash for vote function.

Set up now are many a polling booth ,
That vile men cqapture like a BOOTH.
Experts are they in killing truth
Selfish gains their motives forsooth.

The verdict starts the blame game
The victims hide their face in shame,
The victors hide their well planned crime-
To punish us with FIVE years of grime.


Who to take the onus ??
The blame goes squarely on us .
The lazyones that don't cast ,
The crooked ones that vote caste.

So let us all now go and vote
Probe well and remove their coat
This is the only antidote-
To commence thed rule on a just note.
