Is Anybody Listening?

You've beaten your fist upon your chest,

Banged your head against the wall,

Rang bells 'til the clappers screamed

For mercy from incessant toil,

You've raised your bullhorn to the crowd

In rabble-rousing furtive call,

Ranted, raved and sang your song

Until your blood began to boil.

Every trick at your disposal,

Every sleight of hand device

Employed, developed, cultivated

Makes your cause more interesting.

Stark reality revealing

Facts and figures to suffice.

Now the tricky part concludes.

Is anybody listening?
