"History"

First transgender representative 

First protester

First lesbian senior 

First Muslim mayor 

First to take a stand

First in history

But that's not the point is it?

Not at all

50 fathoms crushing down 

Crashing waves on granite ground  

Whitecaps framed by fading sky 

High above  

On cliffs I lie

Scalding water to make tea 

Eggs Broken to cook an omelet 

__

I wonder what I'd do if it were up to me 

__

 Where I'd draw the line in the sand
