We Are Cicadas Who Have Been Underground For the reason that Obama Administration



Brave imagos, our emergence is nigh! For the reason that Obama Administration, now we have lurked feebly underneath the soil. Now, entrance legs clasped, postcyleptus held aloft with pleasure, we surge skyward to a world replete with the bounties of over a decade of equality and common healthcare!

Once we burrowed 13 years in the past, already the winds of Hope and Change have been beneath our unformed wings. Democrats managed the Home and Senate. Girl Gaga was charting with “Born This Means.” Individuals LOVED Ruth Bader Ginsburg. We felt hearts, minds, and scutella opening. Within the phrases of Martin Luther King, Jr: the arc of the ethical universe is lengthy, nevertheless it SKSKSKSKS towards justice!

Once I was myself however a small, impressionable larvae (however are we not all Small in opposition to the sands of time?), I plopped, wriggled, and squirmed into the soil, la terre, figuring out that an age of progress was dawning.

(As a crepuscular society, oh, would that we knew of something however the aching myths of dawn…)

Was nothing not possible then? The place may we be in 13 years, an egalitarian society freed from wealth inequality so tantalizingly inside our grasp? A president who’s a girl? A president who’s gay-married? SKSKSKSKSK for president? I’m certain the truth is much more indelible than our personal creativeness, extra imbued with unbridled liberation, guided by historical past’s benevolent foreleg.

What beneficent choices have since been handed down by our esteemed courts—little question by this level brimming with inclusion, vibrancy, and data? Justice could also be blind, however we cicadas see not solely with our eyes, however with three dorsally-positioned ocelli.

Sure, as we gnawed on xylem at midnight, our minds have been on hearth with desires of utopia. The salons! The debates! The guide munchings! We feasted on notions of mycelium sentience. What scintillating discourse and mind lies above? Oh, to sit down on a window-screen and expertise firsthand the collision of the good political minds of 2024, differing in opinion however NOT within the respect which they each maintain for each other!

Certainly, we felt via the soil an environmental consciousness awakening. How has our planet blossomed since? New railways, new skyways? The creeping regrowth of the polar ice caps and our treasured rainforests. BEAUTY!!!! ABUNDANCE!!!!

I digress. As we molt via every instar, we welcome a world accepting of transformation, of newness, of distinction. Accepting of gender, intercourse, and variety of eyes. Self-expression and orgiastic fornication for all! No matter newness awaits, we embrace it! We land firmly, weightily, on the t-shirt of this new society of progressivism and tolerance.

Siblings… We have now only some months to savor this courageous new world, and produce offspring. In spite of everything, this world is theirs to take pleasure in in 13 extra years. We construct our tunnels above… TO THE FUTURE!!!!
