 Poem Civic Engagement Power to the PeopleBy: Sophia Tesch
Power to the People! Will they hold it? Vote cash money All ready sold it. Power to the People! Will they see? You’ve got to get off the couch Election Day. Democracy. Power to the People! Put down the remote, The joystick The beer The keyboard The smoke. Power to the People! Hold it in your hands. Leaders take the lead. Make demands. Accountability Transparency Real representation That’s what’s essential Throughout this great nation. Power to the People! No fairy godmother with magic to fix it. The magic is called a vote so get out and use it! A phone, call a letter, to let them know how you feel. It is only then that the people's power can be real. No more excuses take the power in hand. Put time and money where your heart is No more burying your head in the sand Run for office make a stand And you'll see Power goes back to the people Freedom isn't free Democracy.
