[hometext] => It is 8:41 PST on Election Day 2004. I'm sitting down and writing whatever comes out. I'm a democrat by the way. =) Critique appreciated.
[bodytext] => From the pit of my stomach, Rises this swirling knot of angst Anger mixed with tension Screaming to be free The injustice of this all The hopelessness These numbers unforgiving, This feeling so predicting I know what is coming But I don't want to face it All our effort for nothing My scream stays inside But the injustice rises high I know this isn't right But I feel so helpless I know this isn't right I know how it will end tonight Well, I'm not crazy about it. But I've never wrote a political poem before. And I've never just sat down and started writing on this site. = But every word is true in my eyes right now.
