Exclamations

Outcries
Outrage
for empty conspiracy
and repugnant tradition
Clinging to what they know
instead of letting go
into a brave new world

Oh, oh, oh
Don’t change it!
Oh, oh, oh
You’re too sensitive!
Oh, oh, oh
I didn’t mean it like that!

Hollow exclamations
Threatened recriminations
against
new expectations
for a better society
