Institution Green
We voted early this morning. For anything else, we probably would have procrastinated, but this is so important that we made sure we got it out of the way early.
Suzanne Vega has a song called Institution Green that always comes to my mind when I’m standing in line to vote. This time, we saw three of our neighbors there, so I felt less lonely. It felt like a community instead of an institution. I still hummed the song, though.
