An Inaugural Poem

You know, I haven't been posting much the past few months. In part, it's because I haven't been comfortable with the frequent derision hurled at our new President by the other bloggers and commenters here.

But now? A new day's dawn is a-dawning over a new day. And with the format change, I'm more comfortable than I have ever been before.

So as the "Obama is Aces HQ's" resident poet laureate, I offer this ode to President Obama. May his shining countenance continue to bestow blessings on all upon whose shadow it's light falls.


A new day's dawn
is a-dawning
over a new day.

You can see it.
Touch it.
Feel it.
Taste it.
Intuit it.
Guess it.

Things are different now.
Change has come.

It's as if AMERICA woke up and realized,
it had worn the same pair of boxers
for 5 straight days
during a Vegas bender.

And it was time,
time to change
from the worn,
the sweaty,
the stinky,
the skid-marked,
past
And replace that history with
a fresh, clean pair
of y-front jockeys.

With extra ball support in the crotch.
Because America with Obama at the helm
will SWAGGER with HUMILITY
and
Obama's loving hands
will provide the comfort and support
we need
to pull it off.

Yes, a new day's dawn
is a-dawning
over a new day.

It's all around you.
It's in your face.
It won't let you be comfortable
with your flaws.
It will make you work
to exorcise
the post-racial ghosts
that haunt
your typically callow and pallid souls.

For what is Obama,
if not
a healer,
a lover,
a father,
a giver,
a mentor,
a leader,
a man who is so much more
than
just
a man.
A filter of apathy and
A filler of souls.

They say that some institutions are too big to fail.
Like Detroit's Big 3.
I say Obama is too American to fail.
And Kenyan too.
We can't allow America or Kenya to fail, can we?
Because what would that say about us?
That we care more about one than the other?
Why do you hate Africa so?
I bet you didn't even watch Live Aid.

America is about
looking to the future with
hope
and
more hope
and
a hopeful attitude
that expresses
itself
hopefully.

And it's about
change that changes
the things that need
changing
when
other changes
haven't
changed things
enough
for those
who measure
success
by change.

Yes, a new day's dawn
is a-dawning over a
new day.

It's a day rife with promise.
A day rife with expectations.
Millions of Americans
line the National Mall.
Flags waving,
faces smiling,
braving the cold,
and the traffic,
and each others company.
Expanding their carbon footprint
for nothing more than the silent
unspoken prayer
that they
too
shall be a part of history
if only as a footnote,
because as great as he is Obama
can't possibly satisfy them all.
Hah!
Of course he can.
In fact,
Yes, HE can.

A new day's dawn is
a-dawning
over a new day.

And while there are
those among us
who will say that
we don't deserve a man like
Obama
I'm here to tell you
that
indeed we do.

We need him to deign to lead us.
Now more than ever.
Because the apocalypse approaches.
According to the Mayan calendar.
December 21, 2012.
It
all
ends.

But with Obama at the helm,
I'm willing to bet a new day's dawn
will be a-dawning
over a new day
on December 22nd.

And then won't you feel silly
for having ever doubted
the intrinsic, extrinsic,
implicit,
power of
hope
and
change
and
a solid
baseline jumpshot.

Yes, a new day's dawn
is a-dawning over
a new day.

I'm standing in the light.
Trying hard,
to delay the encroaching night.
Because my soul needs saving
my country too,
And I don't want to shortchange
our President
the time he needs to
see the job through.

Yes, a new dawn's day is
a-dawning over
a new day.

Things are different now.
Change has come.
