Class Reunion
I’m preparing to go to my class reunion;
my first, in nearly sixty years;
my physical body is in revolution;
sometimes; flooded with tears.
Seems that it’s more than a lifetime ago;
my thoughts are both happy and sad;

Flooded By Censorship
Slowly the Light of Truth has drowned;
our ship of state; slowly sinking;
there’s only slim hope; truth can be found;
our wise men all stopping thinking.

Something To Say
Everyone has a significant purpose;
