Disillusioned Turnout Poem by Matthew Holloway

It's easy to see why
People become disillusioned
By the election campaigns
And the battles of politicians
And their hard lined supporters
Many shouting repeatedly
Why you shouldn't vote for that guy
Rather than why you should vote
For their own candidate
Insults and picking pieces
To and on opposition policies
Rather than the strengths of their own
It's a daily assault in the headlines
And the news programs reiterate
That none well maybe few
Of those vying for office
Appear to know or be in touch
With the peoples views or thoughts
Still it continues the fight
To get the opposition unelected
And the polls that change constantly
Meaning nothing at all
Because on the day it falls
To the disillusioned who
Turnout
