Demockracy

A poem from 2019


Here’s one man
Here’s one vote
Take a note
Of the promises made
Take a note
Because one day
You may find you voted for a liar


Me and my constituents
We may not always agree
But they represent me
And when they’re wrong
I’ll do what I need to do
To ram the programme through


All hail the mighty Leader
I stand firmly behind you
All hail the mighty Party
I will always oppose you
It’s the role I choose


The people, they are sovereign
But the people can’t agree
I only am the people
The people are not me


Everything I do is right
Against injustice I will fight
Snack on a tasty sound bite


Cross my ballot and hope to die
Fingers crossed, now did I lie?

Vote for me and not for him!
