Honor, a best friend never journeyed far. Praise always puked amongst her (his) coat pocket. Comments from her (his) mouth assaulted silence; Judged humans daily unfavorably. A rapist of words, rapist of respect; Free tick-t to hell. Public cow in veil. Feeding her (him) an ear, some drank vanity. Pretend happiness sauntered through the field; Trampling modesty, her (his) anger grew fast. Wandering sadly, she's (he's) lost and alone; Abandoned prop-ty that lamented birth, hated listening, and fretted laughter; Gnawed heart miss-ng something. WE (A song to G-d) I am part of you, You are part of me, together a union, We. Together we are one, Without each other, We are no one. We are united, Our hearts not divided, No tragedy can destroy Our ceaseless harmonic joy. Heaven is you, Utopia is me, Together forever, WE. Under G-d People are we who cannot see The blameless union, or The best nominee. People are we who cannot see A world without wars, or Fairness for all creeds. People are we who cannot see Freedom from serfdom, or Unity through diversity. People are we who ought to see that We united fall together Under G-d. Tomorrow Night Purim is a party, Hanukkah is happy, Tubishvat is terrific, Yom Kippur is horiffic, Pesach deals with blight, but Shabbat is the best delight, and It begins tomorrow night. **************************************************************************** # (c)2000 aNAda e'zine aNAda054 .*. by Henry Fox # ............................................................................
