From the distance of a great loneliness
Why americans think for themselves
As always
Gun runners whiskey traders and bible thumpers
Are running the world
Only their names change
50 or 60 of Sitting Bull's warriors
Had Henry repeating rifles
Custer didn't know he had no chance
He didn't get to be president
The German consensus of opiinion
Gave them Hitler when the mark went bad
they were killed in war, starved in work camps etc.
Faithful to the end it seems
The Russian consensus of opinion
Followed Stalin who killed millions
In war and in the gulags
When no one had any rubles
Never trust a consensus of opinion
It seems they are often unsustainable
The Italian consensus of opinion
Followed Mussolini
They were murdered and pillaged
As are all victims of war
Who is it trying to kill us
Is it our own negligence?
You say it can't happen to us
Because we believe in Jesus Christ
So did they may it be so
Good luck------we need good people
My mother never felt good enough
Afraid of what other people might think
She would have made a fine public servant
(' A will'o the wisp' means to be deluded
by false hopes and goals. I guess that means
a guy lke me who would like to be a poet.'
