To polling stations Going out in droves, With their unanimous voice, Electors made clear their choice- “A breath of fresh air Would be fair! ” But as a democracy patrons Also democracy vendors, You thought- “Better an old Satan Than an angel new born, The heart of a new angel, We may not crack open!” As peace brokers, To dissuade voters You dinned into their ears, “Democracy is a process! Thus it entails The gradual unfolding of rights! Specially in developing nations, It is tardy in striking roots!” You also went to say “The ill-favoured government , Though by ballot card made out of play And adamant to let power away, A midwife to self-determination Had paved the way For the fairness you enjoy today. Imagine the price it had to pay!” Tirelessly you pleaded voters To see reasons And give the government A time-out and stalemate, Also to let it take part In a joint government! The hardest way What people learnt today Is democracy is indeed a process That could suffer setbacks, Or experience a lapse And down clutters A tyranny abyss! Double dealers Now as a democracy undertaker You venture to offer A hearse, What a farce! As history Recorded it in its annals Go ahead fish in troubled water, By your very nature You are capable To do nothing better!

Specially in developing nations, It is tardy in striking roots!” You also went to say “The ill-favoured government , Though by ballot card made out of play And adamant to let power away, A midwife to self-determination Had paved the way For the fairness you enjoy today.
