THIS IS MY RENDITION OF THE INFAMOUS
BERYLDOV LEW PAINTING

GIRL WITH SHORT ARMS AND NO ***** LOOKING
OFF THE THE SIDE

NOW HANGING FROM A TREE
IN DOWNTOWN MANHATTAN

no!
( the painting --- not BERYLDOV!)
•••
••

WE
(Who have come so far )

WE
( we the human race )

\

We

We who  have rocked the cradle in the sun

//

Stony faced

Stiff
I'll at ease

We see the children crying

WE

we who are only children

We the full power

The power and the will

The righteous potency

Of human fate

••

We

We of the rocking cradle in the sun

•••••

The simple the kind the good

//

We of the human heart and the eye and mind of god

We of all the ancient wisdom

We who have seen

The Divine poems
Written --- here

O

In the passion of our appreciation
In the grace of our mere existence

The sense of brotherhood
Sisterhood
Oneness
&
Harmony

••
WE

Do solemnly  vow

To never

Comply with  nor accept

In any manner
In any essential
Or
Unessential way

Not even acknowledge
The presence

Of any form of the deception

Being practiced now

••

And we shall write

TRUE

we shall write

STRONG

\

Of the pure soul

That which we are
And forever shall be
