Revolution or revelation —

perhaps just a moment in history

seeking its place as the world

wrestles with demons all around



Realization or reverie —

the promise of a rainbow still holds true

and that tree battered by fierce winds has roots

deep enough to weather any storm



Receptive or reluctant —

change will come just the same

but this moment, this choice

records the story to be told



Rejoice today, rejoice

and abandon all regret
