Election Time Poem by Daniel Bernard Kelleher

This is the month for elections
When we will get to cast our vote
This government has run its course
So Ministers please take note
Five years ye spent in government
Squandered billions like confetti
Austerity ye imposed on the poor
Ye sold out our very democracy
Ye heaped misery on the vulnerable
Ye stole what dignity they had
Ye have us believe things are good
Believe us Ministers its just as bad
Ye made promises to get elected
Of which not one of them was kept
Ye proved ye were not fit to govern
In government for sure ye were inept
Two parties formed this government
In reality it was hard to believe
Quangos and cronyism for the boy's
Increased twofold for all to see
