Please, let us be The bringers of Light Under one banner Of those befallen of night Though the way may be blinded Locked by our fear Our apprehension telling us “Please, do not go” And suffer more comfort full of past woe. Bringers of light, What you have will pass And change being the only Thing to last. So love it, know it And advocate change Since the in vogue attitude IS to keep it all the same. Never suffice, oh, Bringers of Light, all of you, With things as they are. Yes, you go, necks out for change, Change everything, since there is Need for change, And change that change So the change is changing And every changing change changed Is best Don’t settle (so change!) For what’s better than change But change, changer, and changest. So raise high your banner And herald in the change! But before we step first, We pause for mantra “It seems so stupid To risk your life for a cause.”

A Satire--or: The Bandwagon
Please, let us be The bringers of Light Under one banner Of those befallen of night Though the way may be blinded Locked by our fear Our apprehension telling us “Please, do not go” And suffer more comfort full of past woe.
