Eulogy

Barack Obama is an angry man
Fina-fucking-lly. I cannot wait
To see what he becomes now he's irate.
A calm Obama always had a plan
And I'll admit I always was a fan
But now that he's unleashed his anger: great!
His righteous anger now should not abate
Until he's resurrected Yes We Can
And made us recognize it does not mean
That what we want will magically appear
Or that he will take charge and make it so
But that when, like John Lewis as a teen,
We make good trouble and refuse to fear
We overcome even the fascists' No.
