My heart beats irregularly
over things I can neither change
nor alter,
and my pain is heavy,
and my heart is bleeding,
and my eyes are running,
and my legs quiver
with fright,
for I see dead and dying people
all over the place!
When I look in my right
I see the headstrong demagogue restless
in their ambition to take over
the world and rule over it;
when I look in my left
I see the likes of me vowing
to never let them.
I need faith, assurance
that things will be all right
again.
I need to hear pleasant things
said or sang aloud
in this time
of great need.
I need echoes of good tidings,
of deliverances, of hopes
and of miracles.
I need to believe once again
as I did when I was young
and full of hope,
that I can move mountains,
change the universe
abd banish poverty and hate
worldwide!
