Election

The day 
of reckoning 
has arrived 
and now 
we wait
I imagine 
that many
stand with 
me on 
turret and 
rampart ready
to defend 
and others 
down below 
brothers and 
sisters who 
broke from 
freedom to 
allay themselves 
with greed
ready their 
battle weapons 
one will 
be victorious 
democracy or
their king
