living in the land of Voll the people unenlightened they march on with eyes shut tight not caring what they trample the people from another land were called the Yisconeasions they met the blinded men from Voll and said please stop and listen "could you at least remove the shades wich hide the world from you?" but "NO" they said "Why should we stop?" "we never haver have before?" we must continue going strong and trample you in stride |

please ignore the word "haver" in the last verse as it was a typo. Sorry for any confusion but I still an a bit clumsy with keyboards. I actually penned this one when I was in high school. Thanks again for reading adagio |

Nodding, I had a feeling Kace, would especially like this one. It may be an old one Ralph, but sadly, some things remain timely, like your message here. Prolly one of my favorites from you. Thus far. (and pssssssst....proud of you) |

At the time when I wrote this my English teacher and everybody else thought it was about Vietnam but actually I was just making a comment on aggressive behavior in general although it did play in my mind the currant events of my teen years. Again thank you for reading. adagio |
