issues over personalities

imagine now if we could shelf the

faces,

the faces of liars, the pocketed charlatans,

imagine now if we could

stop the ads, stop the speeches,

stop the funding, stop the campaigns,

stop the illusion of hope

vested in a smile, a nod, a salute, a

good hairdo or the mention of the word

“faith”---

imagine if we americans,

we “leaders of the free world”

(right),

were to have issues precede any

personality,

imagine if our hands weren’t bound by

unemployment, debt, poverty &

pure desperation,

which up until the moment we realized we

had it,

we seized power for us---

imagine if the jobs that needed being done

following the issues that needed being solved,

were followed through by groups of

concerned, voluntary individuals,

to think that the business of politics

would die in the gutter when

the elite no longer had a stake in it---

imagine if you had more to say

than just a walk into the ballot box on

the 6^th of Nov. &

imagine if you stood up &

said it, without the need to be

known for saying it---

to get in line

get in line

get in line,

as just another human who wants to

really take part in the process of making this

place better.
