Quix, those thoughts came from another FRiend, WayzataJOHNN, this morning, when he posted this poem on Amy's Place:
NIGHT TO DAY MARE
I awoke and found my country gone
changed between a dusk and a dawn
Where honor and honest no longer roam
and now only selective ‘truth’ calls home
Where any honest dissent brings wrath
and only left turns allowed in the path
Where the flag has become a joke now
and personal respect is a forbidden tao
Money is printed on toilet paper hope
and all for taking power over us dopes
Who’ll stand firm and say, and mean, NO
while others watch America crumble and go
Oh if this were but only my dream
but I find too many want to scream
Who will be as strong as those before
we let this evil within our very doors
Am I alone, or will you stand with me
across this great land from sea to sea
It sure got me thinking - his words were so intensly real with where my head is today.
I am sure he would love to hear from other FRiends.
WOW.
Powerful words.
Thanks.
