People are a running ‘round
Ships are caught and
Planes gunned down
Images of a nuclear ban
A world of peace is sought
Yet kids are beat
but never taught
So youth calls a small retreat
God is something of the past
Some say He’s dead
While others fast
And atheists are by Murray lead.
Seems time’s a meaningless thing
that passes by while
Children play and
Women cry and Robins sing.
R. Ruiz 1968
