multi-dimensional political space

Procrustes offered wayfarers a bed
forced hospitality for short and tall
the lankier, he'd shorten by a head
and rack the shorter ones against the wall
the Clintons dare not think beyond their box
preferring to defend the status quo
content that if they're villified on Fox
theirs must be the True Path we all must go
but Change is on the wind and in the street
what FDR achieved's under attack
the Great Society's still incomplete
and Trump aspires to roll the last shreds back
Progressives don't come only in one size
the revolution won't be televised
