Taking Off The Gloves

I have observed the kind of language that has come from these elections. We need never to slip to the levels taken by other countries. We have much to boast about and to date; our elections have been extraordinary thus far. Let’s keep them clean.

 

Taking Off The Glove

The Implication in not unusual to me

A threat to start fighting dirty

Knuckles brandished to aggravate the fight

Inflict more pain with all of your might

Now tell me, who are the wild boys now

Government leader wantonly starting this row

On TV announcing for the rumble to begin

Fight with gloves off to increase his odds to win

For the rest of us God fearing folk

This threat is no fleeting joke

Honest debating is our method of fair contest

Electorate should put the candidates to this test

Gutter talk and ridiculous imagery

Libelous mud slinging and assaults on democracy

Our people should be exposed to the facts

Voters shouldn’t experienced these unscrupulous attacks

Excellency and Honorable they’ll be called someday

Should they be Taking Off The Gloves to fight this way
