The voice of the people must reign.
We tell if they laud or complain.
The right question evokes,
A straight answer from folks
Whose engagement requires little strain.
Working the lane of statistics
Is like being on Wall Street where "vix" is.
The measure of spread
Whether in black or in red
Our numbers help dodge all the ditches.
Don't fear a voters' revolt.
Just ask them, listen and note,
What your residents think,
Wrought in respondents' ink,
Giving findings you always should quote.
And finally, just 'cause you listen,
It doesn't follow your star's going to glisten.
You have to act bold to do
What they have told you
To advance your city's condition.

When discerning the voice of the people
To the data we often defer
We distill the collected statistics
To find out what people prefer
We deliver results to civic leaders
To help them make decisions
From mundane monthly money stuff
To long term lofty visions
And in the end, if we’ve done well
We can stand beside them
Knowing that we’ve done our part
To illuminate and guide them

Concepts disentangled
Illuminating unequivocal computation
Refer to data.
Logic position assumed
Inordinate coordinates for poignant choices
as if economic literacy were a concept you read.
Let loose by line the concrete favor
The billowing mischief now held as a kite
Guided through gusts, separation,
Congregation by means undeniable
Data
