The constraints of hope,
The liberation of acts:
If mere wishing brought change
The homeless would
Dwell in mansions.
Demand is what brings progress.
It's always so.
Are you smug and content?
Let your days be numbered.
Do you but dream of the future?
Step aside.
Change comes only when
We make it too expensive
For power
Not to relent.
