the election is
over & the voice
of the people has been
heard.
(whatever the razor
thin the margin)
how elevating
to the
victor––
how devastating
to the
defeated.
out the darkness
the ego rises
with an agenda
for an unconditional
amerika.
humming hymns
of democracy––
His will be
done.
the leaders of the
world scurry
like courtiers of
yore––
& in the dissembling
corridors of
fear, antithesis
grows.
this election was a
fundamental
lesson––
power is
everything––
power is
awe––
power is the
law.
