I sit in Dublin Airport
tears in my eyes
an all-too-familiar voice
emanating from the monitors
Interesting how his tone changes
once he gets his way
You could hear a pin drop
or a bomb, for that matter
Voices crying out
What have we done?
A woman paces back and forth
speaking to someone on the phone
"Feckin' egits will be
burning crosses on people's lawns next
you wait and see"
It feels like a horrible joke
an 18-month-long hallucination
a social experiment
a reality tv show
A hundred million voices crying out
What have we done?
