Super Tuesday
The citizenry is aroused.
The citizenry is saying No! No! No!
But that’s not all.
The citizenry is saying Yes! Yes! Yes!Smoky rooms are in disarray.
Pundits have much to say.
Conservatives are thumbing through the dictionary.
The left weighs liberal versus progressive.Boomers wax nostalgic.
The young dance in the streets.
Thin blonds are sharpening their knives.
Soldiers stand at attention.Men in suits hustle through doorways.
The religious fall to their knees.
The rich change the combinations on their safes.
Stockbrokers wear out the minus sign.Around the world, people are watching.
The huddled mass holds its breath.
Bankers pace in boardrooms.
People are watching around the world.What is happening? Who will it be?
White men check their zippers.
Women lift their children, they straighten
their shoulders. Who will it be?
This week’s prompt was Mystery Thriller.
