Stevie Nicks performs onstage during City Of Hope's 2026 Music, Film & Entertainment Industry (MFEI) Spirit Of Life Gala at Pacific Design Center on October 27, 2026 in West Hollywood, California. Joe Scarnici/Getty Images Like many of us, Stevie Nicks was overjoyed about the midterm election results this week, when the Democratic Party won total control of Congress.
Nicks posted a “little prayer” on Instagram, which she originally wrote on Oct. 18. “I really believed that what has happened was going to happen,” she said. “It just had to. Good almost wins…I didn’t have time to get it out before the election, so here it is. That’s the dream.”
The poem opens with Nicks describing the beauty of the early mornings, including her dog, Lily, her lamps, and her drapes. She feels anticipation for the coming day, until she remembers, “We are at war/People are starving/Right here/In the United States/We are surrounded/In violence In chaos/In hate.” But she ends on an optimistic note: “But the light creates/A circle of angels/Around this place … That’s the dream.”
