election 2012


 


across the chasm of belief
and disbelief
through that fabricated mist 

against the red face of anger
beneath the blue flame of hope
and the reluctant reach of change 

the soul of a nation has spoken

    Hope, Thank you. Your comment has made my day! I just tried to keep it simple, not totally in anyone's face, but still truthful the way I see it.
