Think, Choose and Live

When I look up
I see a figurehead to look up to
On the other end,on podiums
Only figures lurking
Tongues lash,characters fickle
And promises never hold


Years and years down the line
His allegiance has never changed
Don't be swayed,they always have a pact
No permanent enemies,only permanent interests
Parties and pacts have changed
Allies and allegiances shifted
Only your status as a common mwananchi hasn't

Once bitten,beat your senses to life
Learn,be better and never be bitten twice
Venoms have antidotes
Broken hearts have a way to heal
Truth has a way to emerge
And second chances only
Beckons those worth them
Decide,live a year on wheels of promises
That burst once you cast your vote
Or live on fours for just a year
And drive a four wheel full of hope and promise
Into a new era of  good governance and leadership
The distance between past,present and future
Lies in thoughts and choices

THINK,CHOOSE AND LIVE!!
