Lesser of the two evils
With a creased forehead, crooked smile and a grim look on his face, Raghavan gingerly entered the room. He took a deep breath, closed his eyes and recollected what one of them had said.
“The sun will rise once again,
With renewed hopes and yen
To grow together
Once we dethrone the charmer.”
He simply shook his head sideways and didn’t even bother to recollect what the other candidate had said.
“Neither candidates seem capable of ruling and governing the country”, he muttered under his breath and cast his vote gingerly for the lesser of the two evils.

That’s the sorry state of affairs in our country. Like the way you have used both prose and poetry in your post.
Story of our country!
Putting a political agenda in such poetic form is really commendable. Looking forward to your posts during this challenge.
Sigh this is something we all will relate to. sadly its difficult to find which one is the lesser of 2 evils.. Great take on the prompt Rohan
Ealier it was Amercia which faced this high voltage drama of choosing lesser of two evils. Now its going to be our turn, I suppose.

The choice is what makes or breaks what we want and do in life. Politicians are no exception, in fact it is one of most difficult choice and we can no more take it for granted. Unfortunately, we are trapped in that state of devil and the deep sea. Things are changing and changing pretty rapidly and now the candidates can no more take it lightly as there criminal allegations and records if any needs to be announced in public and aloud for the people to know and then vote. Though it was known in many cases it was also not known by many, perhaps it will help a step further in deterring the candidates to avoid any such nefarious activities.
Ttaht’s really smart. Will keep it in mind before casting the vote in 2019. 😀
