ultimatum

if mccain is elected
i'm leaving the country

actually come to think of it
i'm leaving the country
either way

but that said
i don't want to have to explain
to people i meet in istanbul
[for the record
before you ask
i'll be staying in what was
constantinople]
in two weeks

that we're not a bunch of racist idiots
despite the fact that we just voted for
yet another
old white guy
instead of a smarter
younger
black man
who not only has better ideas
but actually talks about them cogently

so really
it's all about me
so when you vote
think of me

thank you for your time
