Polarised political stances
Broadly as Right and Left
Conservatives and Liberals
Opposite ends of the Spectrum

Caste based divisions
And religious conversions
Causing widespread violence
All time low the tolerance

Earlier regimes blamed
Country loosing its identity
Voters manipulated with Currency
All in the name of democracy

Cultural Social and Political
Philosophies are merged
Organized Religon and Electoral decision
Also known as Right Wing Association

Social and Economic equality
Socialism and Communism given equity
Civil liberties and individual rights
Agendas of the Liberals known as the Left

Accused of burying tradition
Markets not deciding valuation
Governmental influence expansion
Religious tolerance and favor of immigration

Core value system
Ends of the swings of the pendulum
Right to birth or not
Another great dividing block

Economic Education Environmental
Taxation Weapons Immigration
Health  Abortion & Discrimination
Market and Government Religious tolerance

Every political issue
Divided to pursue
Agenda closest to heart
Best of both not a choice

Both the beliefs
Unifying or Divisive
Side of the fence
You are sitting depends

People influenced and passions triggered
Both playing a part demonising the other
People as divided as the ideology
Considering the middle road a travesty

Tiger and an Tusker
Facing of each other
Who wins the fight
Does it matter
That ship has sailed can't get  lower

End result evident
People Countries and the World divided
Neither willing for a peace deal
Meeting point points towards
A war field

Political agnostic
Branded an escapist
Being Apolitical not an option
Its never your decision

Take a side
Ride the Tide
Face the Tide
Halfway must collide

Avoid the tide branded a coward
Waiting for it to subside
Not going to happen
Everywhere there is a divide
