Excellent
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted
Emotions at war

Hope and Rage

by Mike Stevens

Every day starts out exactly the same
Hope eternal but knowing I'll see his name
 
As the headline that greets my eyes
Really makes it tough to even rise
 
Feeling the rage begin before I begin
Scanning and panning, I know he'll win
 
Dispiriting to know that millions turn away
From the lessons of historic yesterday
