The poem is beautiful. Maintains impeccable rhythm and harmony. Perhaps my comment that I was naive was not due to the issue of hope, such as making an equivalence between democracy and elements of immanent order such as faith. Definitely a cute poem. more »

You're
right. My opinion is perhaps due to thinking that words, s in poetry, should
suspend language, make it a contemplation in itself. Amanda's poem is
beautiful, its rhythmicity shows a wonderful sensitivity. Only when he talks
about democracy, it seems naive to me that he makes sense of it by appealing to
an analogy with something hagiographic such as faith. But it doesn't detract
from its pretty message. more »
