for dreaming on of democracy
of freedoms honored
of being free of race considerations
I praise the body public
for following the elected
instead of insisting that they
follow them
or even represent them well
I praise the body public
for dancing to the tune of masters
with no regrets
for finding happiness whatever comes
I praise the body public
for re-electing people who have kicked and chained them
for dreaming past their chains
for finding ways to cope with lowered ceilings
I praise the body public
not sure I'd want them any other way
for once that body stirs
the puking will drown elected and masters both
and people who mocked it.
