November Fifth

No one can predict 

Our country's future  

Various people watching and waiting  

Eager and scared for the outcome 

Making people crazy 

Burning ballots 

Everybody in our country 

Ready for the day, and yet not ready at all 

 

Friends, family, becoming divided 

Innocent people 

Fighting for their rights 

The person I trust with our fragile country is 

Harris

    In a country that was once blue

    It is now red

    It is now scary

    I will not sleep tonight

    I will worry and fret

    About the outcome

    Of this election

    This election

    Will either be a blessing

    Or a curse

    For the next 4 years

    I will not stop thinking
