THE SILENT ANARCHY

Satur Sulit

if democracy is
government by the people
and anarchy is
the absence of government
then a people
unwilling to be governed
when time to select
must in conscience elect
an outlaw to office
to preserve its interests
in the spirit of democracy

    the piece is an observation of fact, not a prescription for more outlaws in government. every vote is an act of conscience. people vote the way they do because they put no stock in the promise of government. it’s the source of our anarchy, what the impossible dream is up against.
