Democracy Spring

Gathered by the hundreds
to make change happen
Sanctifying the revolution
and revolving what is sanctified
Dancing on the edge
of a serrated knife
Only to make you see
that things aren’t all right
Facing jail time and adversity
and still coming together
Sweat, blood, and tears
shed to make a better tomorrow
Will you see them?
Or will you cower in indifference
Like so many before you?
