this song of no options.

In the given set of circumstances,
one can comfortably depend
on the parents, always wishing welfare.
They give their best in bringing up.

There are man-made situations of no options.
Just to be digested without any consideration.
In a democratic country, elections are held.
It is assumed, public has the option.
To vote a candidate of their choice.

In actual practice, if all the contestants are
selfish and corrupt.

Right to vote may result in taking us to an old saying :
“Water water everywhere, not a single drop to drink”.
