political conundrum

A two party system seems like a distant dream today after looking at the questionable state of our democratic rule. Come May 16th... we will witness another round of the "who own the power" game. With every party shifting sides quicker than changing clothes in summer and with what finesse, there is no room for a stable and a secure bond to exist between any two parties. I am sure the parties themselves would have lost count of the number of alliances they have shiftedin the past few years. The conviction to do something for the nation and its people seems to have died. It is only I - MY POWER - MY EGO. At this time when two big parties and the several others are forming fronts in the power game, several independent contestants are participating in the elections, which come as a breather. And to determine how well they fare and if they get into the big league - will their conviction remain, is a distant thought. Will the big sharks of politics chew up these small fishes? Yes, in all probability. Politics and pol games are fun to watch! Yes, they are!

Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water
Jack fell down and broke his crown
And Jill came tumbling after.
I wish:
Up got Jack, and home did trot As fast as he could caper
He went to bed and bound his head
With vinegar and brown paper.
