"Ancora Imparo" "I am still learning." -Michelangelo


She glides effortlessly across the ball room floor. Routinely. She's played this game before.

You resist her temptations at first, but in the end, Democracy prevails. Those boots move in their predetermined motions, towards you.

She offers an irresistible deal, yet you still refuse. The night progresses and the cabaret singer continues her infectious performance.

As the singer ends her final number, the woman returns with her final offer. This is a well-rehearsed move. You deny her. She will not persist and states that she values your opinion.

Yet she'll be at your doorstep tomorrow morning. Whether you want it or not, Democracy comes to you.
