Across the country

Fingers touched,

Bodies tingled,

Auras mingled

Into a sudden

Rush, a release,

A decades held

Orgasmic explosion.

Minds raced

Back to Bobby,

Dry tears, fears,

Silent prayers

That the right

Wing red necked

Bigots railing from

Seamy studios and

Belching blogs

Would not arouse

An idiot.

Poetic peace,

Justice, Africa

Sent a soul to

Inspire America

The world.

Are those Alice’s

Words Obama 

Has spoken?

“We are the ones

  We have been

  Waiting for.”
