Goose Steps the march of time in goose step rhyme hup two three four war war war war. Twisted minds like lemon rinds bitter pill kill kill kill. The pain is real in bullets feel the rip and tear what do you care? Keep the rhythm stroke the gun wave your flag at everyone. The march of time in goose step rhyme feeds the war and pockets more. And they all went marching down to the woods...to get out...of the rain to applaud and enjoy...the economics game boom boom boom |

War does not bring peace or freedom. But maybe we just have to kill one other until everyone is dead before we find that out? |

peace pipes and doves, flowers and rainbows hugging, kissing, smiling, laughing, playing, singing.... these are the things sweet dreams are made of, the things that celebrate love, freedom, peace, LIFE |

yes, John, and are herby posted, in part, because these are some of the things my Auschwitz survivor friend wants the world to remember and focus on.... that it never happens again but to move forward, into the march for peace and love, caring and giving, for the sake of LIFE itself |

Goose-stepping something I find myself having to do alot, as I have family in service and as you know, I disagreed with the reasonings of this war. I pray they all come home soon. I know you share that prayer with me, too. sigh, I'm not asleep. Rumor has it I don't do that much. |
