If every good idea I ever thought were mine
To recall or remember
I could keep my mind stayed on peace one day
On being loved the next
On loving the day beyond next
And so on
Paying nonevermind to an x
where chi-roe etc should be
Paying no heed to rumors of war
And threats of Sodom’s revenge
Scorning the tyrant selling lies
To prison widows whose men can’t vote
Row row row (you know the song,
Is it wrong to sing along
With an oft’ told lie from childhood?)
Life is more than a dream.
Teach the children Blake’s Songs.
That’s the truth and there is so much more.
