Election results making power seekers jump with elation
Shed a tear, if possible, for wounded soul of nation
Mega super spread rallies and processions charted the path
Facilitating the nation to easily plunge in tragic bloodbath

Hoards of living came out to cast vote to make it count
The dead sacrificed their lives to put leaders on mount
For census of caste and religion of dead do not take pain
Deceased can no longer be exploited for electoral gain

We grieve in silence without ado or funeral procession
Celebrate and take victory lap to fulfil macabre obsession
Project bigger dreams and positive spin without cost
Pyrrhic victory for power seekers but humanity LOST
