Political Unrest

I frown tall
Cry out displeasure
Standing like a human billboard
Protesting lack of substance
False promises.
1+1+1+1 can never equal 5
1+1+1+a fraction
And 1 stands alone
Addition falters
Subtraction tries to take over
Division succeeds
And then there is multiplication
Of doubts
Of fears
Of resignation
A pyramid of
...1
..111
.11111
1111111
Falls back down
And up rises a nation.
