Awake: Tours & Doors

[scarletwoman]

5. I have no idea if Hillary's "listening tour" consists of actual listening, or if it's just

a campaign tactic coreographed to make her look like she's "listening". In other words, big on show, light on substance.

Yes, it would be lovely indeed if what she listens to ends up transforming her into a more enlightened human being. I have my doubts - it would be dishonest for me to say otherwise.

Ultimately, it probably doesn't matter. If she's the Dem nominee in the General Election, I will vote for her, simply because it's unthinkable to allow a Republican to win the presidency.

I often think of the old song by Mimi and Richard Farina, "Children of Darkness". We are all caught in the darkness of a world run by elites who have no conscience and no humanity - Hillary no less than the rest of us.

Edited to add the lyrics:

Now is the time for your loving, dear
And the time for your company
Now when the light of reason fails
And fires burn on the sea
Now in this age of confusion
I have need for your company

For I am a wild and a lonely child
And the son of an angry man
And now with the high wars raging
I would offer you my hand
For we are the children of darkness
And the prey of a foul command

It's once I was free to go roaming in
The wind of the springtime mind
And once the clouds I sailed upon
Were sweet as lilac wine
Then why have the breezes of summer, dear
Enlaced with a grim design?

And where was the will of my father
When he raised his sword on high?
And where was my mother's wailing
When our flags were justified?
And where will we take our pleasures
When our bodies have been denied?

So now is the time for your loving, dear
And the time for your company
Now when the light of reason fails
And fires burn on the sea
Now in this age of confusion
I have need for your company
