In the quiet morning
There was much despair
I now feel it too
In the American air
War and ignorance
Here and over there
Is this then who we are?
People who cannot care
I’m grateful for the good
Love music, movies, and sports
But the politics I hate
And the arrogant ******* retorts
I’d like to travel again
India, Venice, Istanbul
Wander this wayfairing world
Leave when I’m sated and full
Gaze into the Great Beyond
Enter the starry soulsky
Kiss my three beautiful boys
Venture forth boldly and die!
