Throughout the years, I’ve learned to use
my time well-
I’ve got it down pat, as in the
following you can tell.
.
I’ve had time to go to the show-
At least three times in a row.
.
I’ve had time to go out and shop-
Til I almost had to drop.
.
I’ve had time to get my nails done-
While out and about, and on the run.
.
I’ve had time to play that video game-
Until home from school, the kids came.
.
I’ve had time to bowl a game or two-
With enough time for dinner, when I was
through.
.
I’ve had enough time after work, to go out
to dine-
When I feel the need to do something, I
never feel like I’ve put myself in a bind.
.
I’ve had enough time to spend the evening
at the bingo hall-
Although, unfortunately, they never
dropped my winning ball.
.
I’ve had enough time to watch the news-
To try and figure out which politician
will win, or which will lose.
.
So why have I never taken the time to
go out and vote in any election?
Because my time is valuable, and obviously
it is not something, that I feel, needs to be
done.
.
VOTING IS A PRIVILEDGE THAT SHOULD NOT
BE TAKEN SO LIGHT-
AS A CITIZEN OF THE UNITED STATES,
FIND THE TIME, TO PARTICIPATE IN A PROCESS,
THAT IS YOUR GIVEN RIGHT.
