Momentum (Found in Dr. Hunter S. Thompson) --- There was really no point in fighting, On our side or theirs. We had all the momentum, Striking sparks anywhere, riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave. There was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we were doing was right... And that, I think, was the handle –- victory over the forces of old and evil. Our energy would simply prevail. So that now, less than five years later, You can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas, And look West, and with the right kind of eyes, You can almost see the high-water mark –- The place where the wave finally broke, And rolled back. --- by michael alahouzos 2005
