Metaphor or some rhetoric in politics

Politicians wring their fingers;

Flex some muscle—

Comeuppance in filling jails

Thereby set rivals to win back.

Leave not the turf for younger bench

No one buys their clichéd cards;

Stay on like night watchmen,

Volley in double faults,

A few of them would touch bases

In prestigious pockets they scrape.

Each one likes to score,

By default lie to settle scores,

Galleries will not eat arguments,

After all they have to eat their words;

Now here, our common man

Wishing for the driver's seat

As the elections are round the corner,

And sooner drops the ball dead in vote banks.

No one dares in democracy.

They only jump to conclusions,

Ruling statesmen least confronting.

They only fly off the handle.

They carry things to the far boundary,

Oppositions may flash Red 

For penalty-- in the face of forum umpires

Only dodge their responsibility.

The browser wishing for a break—

I push my luck with a mouse click.
