Sign reads: “Yes We Can!”
Tho’ the man in front of “we”
Slightly disagrees…
Long line—and I wait
Audience to hems and haws
man’s face getting red
his volume rises
neck veins strain—it ain’t pretty
this rocking the vote
speaking of rocking-
he must own a boat--somewhere
maybe north? Must be!
Why yes….Nan-tucket…
He shouts only of this place…
its suns and beaches….
Line dies down—my turn
Nan-tucket! Suns and beaches!
It all becomes clear
Whining, complaining
When there are boats to be sailed!
free suns and beaches~
Sign reads: “Yes We Can”
Thank God “we” begins with me.
oh democracy…
