Poem

Why do you never come to us
Have we no voice
What is the engine of your distrust
It was not our vice
That ran this country to the ground
And we are only energy left around
Since our interest is tied
To what the merchants crucified
Where will you get tax
And we the wealth and leisure to relax
I say, Mr. President, start again
This road now taken is so vain.

I speak not for elephants and radio host
Whose interests disturb me the most
I speak not for the ulterior will
To change status quo upon the hill
I speak for those who voted
Not for long lines at canteens counter
Empty house sprouted
Like children huddled in a messy corner
I speak for fathers tired
Of policies against the poor
That are in slick philosophies mired
Arguments with an empty core.

Come back to us, let us reason again
For even God doth reason still
With sinners, give us voice to ease our pain
Too much thinking chokes the will
O will you hear us, will you love us
Will you share the burden of the day
By meeting us on the bridge of trust
We have little time, brook no delay
There is nothing to graph or calculate
Here, except rising despair
A cold wind blusters a miserly fate
Need is a voice sodden by tear.
O let us arise, and let us build
The citadel promised upon the hill.
