I'll not put my hope in any party

to rescue this teetering nation

they are no more than men

they are no more than women

are too thin a layer atop this madness

are too far removed from its bottom

yet bear in themselves its imperfections

their best work can achieve no final good

no

we are doomed

we are headed for destruction

if man is the height of our restless hope
