The tracks have been tenaciously hewed out –

Straight from the core – unveiling the election course;

And an assembly of mixed blood – each savior

Armed with the solution manuscript;

The self-acclaimed catalogue – to eliminate

A collective yoke; the overall bondage;

Casting a cyclic restriction on the coal-colored

Entity – the soot-riddled, odd-shaped, nationality.

There are wild sails of polluted vows –

With the irresistible drug – the ultimate

Paper Power – lounging glamorously on center stage.

The war-gong has been sounded – initiating a thick row

Between Sentiment and Credibility,

Between Illusion and Reality,

Between Selection and Election,

Between Mediocrity and Meritocracy.

The eventual outcome begins with you!
