A Short Opinion On The Election Of President Obama

By Tony Brown

no more water
the fire next time

sounds better
when you bend it
blue

so it’s
less a threat than
a recognition
of how parched
things may get

even though thirst
is momentarily
quenched

~~~~~~~

note:  something I evidently wrote a while ago but only found this AM.  not sure of the inspiration — was someone singing this at one of the inaugural festivities?
