A Not So Silent Night

Acquire the breath of life
Help shoulder another's burden
This is my very last muttering
A mere plague upon you is my request
No more denying human suffering once you begin

Amidst this Christmas' cheer
Begin to realize this
Nothing is stronger
Than the united human will

Acquire the hope for all lives
A human crutch to lean on
Relief from the bankers muttering
An endless plague upon you is debt's request
No more denying class suffering once you begin

Amidst the Christmas parties
Begin to realize the sorrow
See that nothing is stronger
Than the united human will

Acquire the will to kill
Shoulder the loaded rifle
This is my very last muttering
An relentless plague of death
Is war's mechanical request
No more denying the napalm rain
Once a loved one's been touched by it

All within me screams
On this not so silent night
A decisive battle we all write
The race against our own pen
The power of our brush strokes
Wake up to paint your path this very night

Amidst the gift unwrapping
Begin to realize momentary smile
Is meaningless compared to the everlasting
Strength of the united human will
To serve

Universal Equality
