The anticipation of the second evening of the debates consumed me throughout the day Wednesday. Knowing that in mere hours all my friends would be back on stage speaking directly to me, the voter, was tantalizing.
The moment the pre-game show ended, and the soaring music began, I found serenity. Their soothing voices and inane proposals washed over me. I bathed, luxuriated, in their performances. The democracy flowed through me, seeped out of my every pore.
I shed my fleshy shackles and was transformed. Transformed into a being of pure freedom. I could feel each amendment flow from and through me.
I am become Elektor, Voter of Worlds.
