A Faded Bedroom Poster

by Greg Asimakoupoulos

Posted: September 2, 2012

Why it's time for a new one…

There's a faded campaign poster
in your college grad's bedroom *
that announces hope and change that never came.
And your graduate is grousing
'cause he just can't find a job,
but he's starting to discover who's to blame.

Four years ago he bragged about
Obama's glowing words.
He was wowed by the young candidate's appeal.
But at last he's come to realize
those promises were blank
and the call for hope and change weren't really real.
