Change We Can Believe In ( Sold $3000)
Scratchboard Art
POEM-CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN
To believe one vote
Can make a difference
Is an act of faith
Not a drop in the ocean
But a tsunami of sorts
Multiplying with tour de force
In a country of immigrants
Descendants of slaves
And the Indigenous
Ideally singing a common tune
In harmony with
WE the people
Not simply me, or you
But US, together
Keepers of the flame
Burning in our hearts
To be free and stay free
In the only possible way
By casting that single vote
As the bedrock
Of hope in our democracy
Believing WE the people
Will be the elected majority.
