Open Mic

A Very Short Version of the Simple Physics of Socio/Political Change

posted in politics [more from this topic] anonymously on Thursday, March 22nd 2012 at 1:05 PM.

Push and Pull - Pull and Push
I want - You want
I need - You need
What’s Mine ? - What’s Yours ?
Agreed and Disagreed
Two (or more) Wills opposed
We’ll Struggle through
It’s the nature of Things
Push Me - Pull You

  ___________

Revolution inevitably brings about Devolution
As one Thing Changes in order to Create another
While considering the predictably unpredictable Evolutions
Inherent within Revolutions
Some more weak-kneed types may ask, “Why bother” ?
But Aspirations held high
And Respirations brought from air-hungry pants
To anticipatory and satisfied sighs
By-and-by
The Ideals of Revolution
Taken one quick Step at a Time
Forever Conspire to Inspire
Forever Soar Above and Fire
The Spirit and Mysteries of Becoming

Respectfully,
Leah Sellers
