WE THE PEOPLE ARE WAITING

We the people are waiting
for the rebirth of democracy
for the restoration of civil liberties
for the re-distribution of wealth
for the return of integrity

We the people are waiting
for the advancement of the common good
for the spiritual awakening of the moral elitists
for the transformation of individual consciousness
for the zealots to find inner peace
for the general tolerance of multiplicity
for the enlightenment of religious extremists
for the emergence of a sense of community
for the dynamic growth of kindness and compassion

We the people are waiting
for America to vanquish its sense of entitlement
for America to relinquish its global hegemony
for America to re-discover its true identity

We the people are waiting
for a Socratic approach to problem solving
for a more platonic form of leadership
for an Aristotelian analysis of government

We the people are waiting
