On this day
I have cast my vote
in electing my soul
now and again
to serve
as my guide, compass, captain and architect
in getting through this thing called life,
electric word life meaning forever,
according to Prince’s prophetic pop,
so row row row row your boat
gently down the stream
merrily, madly, joyously aware
that, Life, as above, so below,
is where the wild things dream.
