To vote or not

 

At first, I was angry when my friends would say
That voting's not worth it, and they'd stay away
But lately, Kazik Staszewski made it clear
He won't be voting, and I can see why, I fear

There's simply no one to vote for, it seems No good options to fulfill our dreams But if we all abstained, then what would we do? Our democracy would crumble, it's true

It's like a categorical imperative, they say To ensure democracy, we must vote, come what may But that argument falls short, for people will still go Even if we don't, democracy will still flow

It all comes down to the individual's choice To vote or not, it's a risky throw of the dice Yet in ancient Athens, and briefly under Duda's reign Some believed that lottery was a more democratic game

And in India, arranged marriages are praised For life itself is a lottery, they're amazed From the individual's perspective, every choice we make Is a gamble, a risk we must undertake

So should we vote or not? It's hard to say But in the end, it's up to us to have our say For democracy to work, we must all participate And hope that our choices will make our future great.
