The Election Results
Yes, yes, yes,
I hear your caterwauling.
Of course, of course, of course,
I’m listening to your raving.
Sure, sure, sure,
I understand why you’re shaking.
And yet, yet, yet,
I’ve been thinking.
If it had been the other,
Would anything be different?
They are two sides of the same coin.
What’s the difference between,
A loud jerk and a quiet one?
Whether you announce your sins or repress them,
Are they not still sins?
And so,
Yes, yes, yes,
You’re entitled to your bemoaning.
Of course, of course, of course,
I’ll support you, for we are neighbors.
Sure, sure, sure,
We will prepare for what’s to come.
Just please, please, please,
Don’t take this too far.
For I believe that one lone man,
Cannot devastate a country,
Without facing the wrath of its inhabitants,
And the judgement of his God.

Some of us are really scared by this election. And maybe we should be. But we aren't alone. We're an entire country. We can and will support each other, even in the face of the unknown. You trust in me, and I'll trust in you, and we'll all make it through.
