Annael Posted March 9, 2002 Report Posted March 9, 2002 sorry...yeah, even more from me. I guess I was hit with inspiration, not all of it good sorry, but what better way then to write it down and get feedback on it? In a land not so far away Yet way out of reach There is a simple child With a simple life In a not so simple world. The simple child With a simple life Plays with simple friends In the simple streets With simple sticks and stones In a land not so far away Yet way out of reach There is a simple child with a simple life In a not so simple world The simple child Plays with grown-up children In their grown-up streets With their grown-up guns In a land not so far away For every simple child born Five simple children die In a land not so far away No one is to blame for these deaths But us In a land not so far away Yet way out of reach That simple child With the simple life In a not so simple world Is you.
Gwaihir Posted March 9, 2002 Report Posted March 9, 2002 *grins* A nice piece, quite a bit of social commentary in there too. ---------- I want to be page 93 of Pineapples, the Avian Crows-Nyyark
