Peace we Need

Yes, peace we do need,


So start right and plantum’ sum seed,


If all the countries at war were high,


All would be smiling and giggling, you know why…


 


Pass around that big assed pipe,


Forget about all the negative hype,


Better to die in your bed of too much drug,


Than to be bitten to death by some foreign bug…


 


Okay so pot may not be the answer,


Better that though than to around bullets be a dancer,


Personally I would rather stay at home and contract cancer,


Than to die in a country full of belly dancers…


 


No more exploding cars,


No more exploding beer bottles in bars,


No more exploding anything that disfigures and mar’s,


Bring em’ all home, let them decide their death,


Here at home rather than from afar…

Interesting writing Ed, and "yes, peace we do need"
love and peace, Carole

The reality is we either fight the war on their soil or we wait for them to come here and fight it on our own (I would think you, of all people, should understand this, Ed). Perhaps if I smoke enough, I won't care if they do come here and try to obliterate our lifestyle, our people and our country, or perhaps I should just get so high that I am able to pretend that I live in a perfect world where all people love one another. Nice thought, Ed, but reality deals a much harder slap in the face.

Take care,

Sherry

Amen to that, brother.

Ed,

Yes, we do need peace. But terrorists don't rest...and neither should we. A thought provoking pen you wield--well done.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

Although the giggling part sounds nice...
