There was a time:
(do you remember?)

When we stood above  the world
& saw

The violations of Sacred law

& knew we were the Remedy

-=•

What a time!
(Such a time it was )

(Do
You remember?)

When we were brave
& we were free

Free enough to dare step between

Our children & the "criminals"

••

There was

The planting of the Seed
Of
Human Dignity

BUT

Our destiny?

WE LOST!
THEY WON!

(How come?)

••

Because

We weren't really
Brave & free

At all

ALL WE DID WAS TALK!

(We never tried to do --- a thing!)

••

(Do you remember?)

When we betrayed

Ourselves & the Sacred law

WHAT A TIME!

(what a time it was)
