propaganda gap

6 April, 2008

they ask for harmony but give us none
all of their words come empty at the last
such symbols are most ancient under sun

this is not anything that is not done
by anyone who hopes to finish fast
they ask for harmony but give us none

a kind of fairy tale that has been spun
by those who hoped to leave us all aghast
such symbols are most ancient under sun

those messages another age had run
right down to earth but now we have contrast
they ask for harmony but give us none

we might expect a sharp blow that would stun
a normal mind or else some kind of blast
such symbols are most ancient under sun

what we get though is only half begun
and better left in dead rooms of the past
they ask for harmony but give us none
such symbols are most ancient under sun
