The power of democracy-
After any and all elections-
When the citizens,
Non-citizens,
And the dead have voted:
And let's not forget those who also voted-
And are said to have the right
To have their voice counted-
Even though they do not exist at all.
The power of democracy-
Very clearly,
There's a writing-
When the term "democracy" itself,
Becomes meaningless-
That is slowly appearing on the wall.

"Rehab Rationalizations"
There were all these rationalizations:
From them -
From me...
But none of them astounded me.
No, nothing they said, or I said - astounded me at all...
I didn't like them - I didn't like me.
And I especially didn't like this crap with the yoga.
A bunch of useless New Agers -
All part of the people I despise -
And in this instance, I didn't despise me...
But once I escaped this rehab center - first in my mind, and later in body:
They at least began to fade farther and farther into the background:
And I felt somewhat on the ascent -
No longer in such an absurd nightmare -
Because I think I must have died.
From them -
From me...
But none of them astounded me.
No, nothing they said, or I said - astounded me at all...
