looking forward

millenials won't pay a landline's fees
and are invisible when pollsters call
statistics can't predict what they can't see
no more than the darkside of the moon's ball

a liberated cohort's on the rise
untallied in the Parties' calculus
who aren't drinking in Fox News' lies
and have their own ideas of "them" and "us"

Fox brayed too soon Ohio had swung Red
and put McCain's campaign over the top
but it's Obama that came out ahead
and brought the Palin madness to a stop

a year's still time for flip-flops and meanders
before we get to hail president Sanders
