i believe he was partly right

that the revolution hasn’t been televised

yet

because it’s getting underway

oh, darling, look at the news

the people are getting restless

we shouldn’t have to see people that look at us

at the hands of those who are weak and despicable

because their system lets them

give it time

and we will have our own

give it time

and very very soon

something else will be televised—

not black death

traumatizing black death—

no.

the revolution will be televised.

how do i know?

well, darling, i do believe the revolution has begun
