Power from the People
good intentions
lost direction
strangers' faces
around her
chanting
reciting
mantras of
whose voice is the loudest
united
naivety
got her here
the ignorant, exploited
by 'opponents'
of the Movement
greed, confronted
only ten percent
of the ninety-nine
seem conscious
of games played
by the corporate
invisible strings pulled
by establishments
she accepts the placard handed to her
'Power to the People'
splashed in red
staining innocence.
caricatures of the masses
displayed by the media
to be exploited.
