Chorus
by Ted L Glines

'Presidentand Cabinet Kidnapped'
blared the Monday news
they were missing without clues
by Tuesday it was
'Major World Leaders Missing'
'Terrorist Plots Feared'
'Wall Street Moguls Disappeared'
'Fidel Castro - Tony Blair
Simply Vanished in Thin Air'
and the terrorist connection
was proved beyond a doubt
for they could not be found
they were no where about
Arab TV strangely silent
no one bragging tattling
no strutting in Haifa
nor in Tel Aviv
and no swords were rattling
Wednesday - Thursday - Friday
brought no bombing death
as we waited - watched - listened
held our collective breath...

Namaste
in a Tibetan monestary
came a vision of peace
all the men of power gone
what a sense of release
Om Shanti Shanti Shanti

in her forests - sunlit glades
with countless sparkling pools
she danced and merrily laughed
with her Goddesses and Nodes
thrilling to the chorus
the mighty raucous sound
those voices all around
of all her newly made
toads


Author's Notes: If all the people who professed themselves to be powerful witches were to get their acts together... ah well, wishful thinking. Blessed Be!
