quiet chaos
quiet chaos
quiet chaos descends on the land
on the day after
the big election
a sense of quiet chaos
descended across the land.
The campaign has ended
The commercials have gone silent
Pundits debate
What does it all mean?
Both candidates
Claim they won
And the other candidate
Must have cheated.
The public feels
A big “Meh”
Saying to both sides
“Get over it.
Get a life.
The sun will rise again
The world is not ending.
And we will get through this
Whatever the hell this is.””
Good advice to us all
As we deal with the quiet chaos
That always follows
A hotly fought election.
