Within This grave and very black night When I am filled with concern For the sons and daughters of man I am taken back to another time When nights were black And no less grave I was anxious for the well being Of one mans son (coward) Did I really hope that the outcome Would be the end of “god” politic? Or merely Spout the rhetoric of dissent As an inroad to cheap wine And feverish young women I took such pride In being gassed and dragged And jailed Now, on this night I really do hope that these days Will be the de-clawing of religiosity But, find myself without fustian shout Oversweet wine Or adolescent acquiescent (coward) Nor, have any interest In being reviled and abused I’ll need to find my peace tonight Within [This message has been edited by wranx (03-20-2003 08:32 AM).] |
