What's That Sound

I'm thinking about fatherhood in these wee hours and the state of our electoral system.
The one where capitalism has succeeded in purchasing our democracy.
U$A, U$A, U$A.
A cousin of mine has children right around the age of adulthood.
They are people of their time.
This time.
My wife is a person of her time, which is this time and the time she experienced building up to this time.
I am a person of my time, although I think the 20th Century (especially parts of it that elapsed before I was born) is really important and that there are some important things to be learned from it.
My son will be a person of his time.
A time that hasn't happened yet.
I can only do about that time what one person can do.
