But who is fiddling now?


Poem Artwork

 

July 1 2008...Mossy Head, Florida...5:37 in the a.m.

We have got a man who's nuts, invading where he will
Congress doth approve it, so he's doing it still!
Covert operations destabilise while there
So we will provoke them and stir up much bad air!
Guess who we are paying to do this job for us
Groups who are on the terrorist list
They all got on the bus!
We paid another terrorist
And then he paid us back
Not with thanks and gratitude
Instead he launched attacks!
For that they launched a war they did
Then switched to somewhere else
Felled a cruel dictator, which we all thought was swell!
And yet the man that launched attacks
Is out there running free
While we are paying terrorists
To terrorise...Oh Whoopeee!
Will anybody stop this?
Or will we just lie down?
And let these men destroy our world
So please send in the clowns!
For clowns are what we seem to be
We're fiddling once again
Just like Nero in the past
While Rome still burns in flames!

Be always safe,

Future: The Spiritual Story of Humanity by Glenn Martin

Histories of the world are generally written to either celebrate technology and science, or to herald doom. My book examines the path of the spirit in the onward rush.
