OUT OF REACH
Just one more election cycle
Just one more establishment candidate
One more renegade candidate
One more greying party boss
One more focus group
One more crisis to try and shake the people
from their apathy
One more return to normal
Just one more rally
One more registration drive
One more riot
One more small donor dollar
One more lecture about the constitution
One more lecture about Marx
or maybe one more lecture about Malcom X
Please please keep coming
yes we can keep hope alive
just hold on a bit longer
don’t give up
the revolution, the replication
is nearly here
And then you can go back to brunch
