Look Out! the Sky Is Falling!

I dig the magenta gel
you view the world through, brother.

But, at
the same time it has been nigh on
a year since my candidate won the election, and
maybe you and everyone like you should just let it go and
realize the world hasn't ended.

Yeah, yeah.
Go ahead and say it's only a matter of time before some 
redneck assassinates him. 

I don't care because you're wrong. 
No one from your school of thought has the guts anymore. 
maybe if this were the sixties one of you might try something, but it's not.
And you won't.(innard deficiency)

Conversely, this is an age where sore losers whine like
babies when they don't get their way, watch lots of Bill O'rielly, and stockpile 
ammunition and non-perishable food. 
All because we live upon a 
landscape of
Change.

Well done my friend and yes they're wrong, the coming of change has just begun, in times of past were stories old of men who cast, to see heads roll but not today, not in the change in Time. Peace has come calling with a twist in the rhyme... ;) ... I enjoy reading you my new friend. Very inspirational.

Thought-provoking piece, Geoffery. You bring up some good points, and do so with a style that I enjoy (innard deficiency)! Great write, keep on bringing this to the table, and you'll always have a reader in me, for I love any work that makes me think! Hugs, Donna
