This morning I opened up my eyes to exercise my right to the democratic process It doesn't matter if I did it with heart or thoughtless Regardless I am standing with my brothers and sisters trying to make a better system for the sinners by supporting snakes and trying not to see censors That 45 minute wait allows me to contemplate what it all could mean. Was this really the dream of so many before me? I've grown so worldly with knowledge of the Caravan, the Taliban, the Muslim ban, and the wedding bands around the families of Americans We all just want to keep it together, some to let go become a feather in the arms of the weather we call political tides Is that a blue or red wave coming? Whatever it is. It means nothing.

Democracy
This morning I opened up my eyes to exercise my right to the democratic process It doesn't matter if I did it with heart or thoughtless Regardless I am standing with my brothers and sisters trying to make a better system for the sinners by supporting snakes and trying not to see censors That 45 minute wait allows me to contemplate what it all could mean. Was this really the dream of so many before me? I've grown so worldly with knowledge of the Caravan, the Taliban, the Muslim ban, and the wedding bands around the families of Americans We all just want to keep it together, some to let go become a feather in the arms of the weather we call political tides Is that a blue or red wave coming? Whatever it is. It means nothing.
