The revolution will not be televised (2015 edition) (a poem)

2015/04/02 Kevin J. O'Conner

I was sitting in a waiting room when the first line of this poem popped into my head…

The revolution will not be televised
because they don’t want you to know it is happening

By the time you find out
it will have been won or lost

and packaged as a reality show
on cable

This is kind of creepy because it’s probably not too far off from the truth of how a revolution would actually go down! But well written nonetheless! Visiting from NaPoWriMo…nice to meet you 🙂

Make that a wasp. Bees are friendly. Sorry!
