Analysis of Hard To Hold On To Numbers So Small



The year of Election
upon us once again,
if truth be told,
for decades I had played "NO PARTISCIPATION",

The last time I actually cast a ballot,
I wrote in my own option opinionatedly,
some may perceive as a Rebel,
due to personal theory.

1 Vote doesn't make a difference,
1 Voice, 1 in singularity,
that's the purpose of elections,
for number of the majorities.

While "No Candidates" are perfect,
at the end of the day,
it seems only Republicans or Democratic,
the push of power to play.......

For those are the two parties,
with financial backing,
Liberals, non partisans
and Independent Americans.....

Get lost or eliminated,
viewed as automatic underdogs,
the only one throughout history,
with half a a chance was Ross Perot.

But withdrawing his own nomination,
the billionaire so profound,
a businessman not into smear campaigning,
no tolerance for ignorance he found.

Why all the efforts without open minds
or individualization to explore minor parties,
the equal advantage to help a country
instead of defending new opportunities largely,

Not focused on a specific flaw,
no moving of mass of religions, no
impact of forces to agree..........
Maybe something new was in the making,
before decisions to blow up microscopic scrunities.

The man had a lot to teach us,
maybe paved the way toward regularly..........
before discarding a candidate,
due to the specific party.

Now decades have passed,
while offices have too changed,
more than just, bills, rights and laws,
America now seeks a miracle leader in the exchange.

Of errors and continuous deficits,
a factor to hear all stands
forget about future years to employ,
as I credit even Trump for saying 2 year plan.

Rebuilding America,
Lord knows we're way overdue,
as I look back at Perot dismantlement
forget a society underserving was way back in 92.

And I admit to be somewhat of a protestor myself,
as I did a hands up in awe and respect,
with the whole hearted memory...........
so few viewed as a rightful and valid candidate.

From "We The People" to politicians,
representatives to bums,
the slow lost of what was once freedom,
now does push us all to succumb,

Mental & Psychological evaluations,
I once to rage to say,
have Americas voters tested
before casting ballots on election day.

A trine of a circular,
whether progress or perfunctory,
those who blame the politicians?,
how did they get into office tangibly.

About this poem

Personally a trite of a believer myself, 1 Voice don't count. But "If one Elects to draw a box and write in I Vote for The Mafia". well consequences to that too.
