falling

There's a restlessness in me today.
I can't sit still.
I can't concentrate.

It's not the coffee, yet.

Over and over these lines sing in my head:
"Because these things will change
We can see it now
These walls that they put up
To hold us back will fall down
It's a revolution
It's how we'll become who we're supposed to be
We'll sing hallelujah
We'll sing hallelujah"

The air stirs. The last leaf falls and I'm ready for a revolution.
