If only

Anyone hear about what’s goin on in Congress recently? No? Me either. It’s kinda like “who gives a rats ass.” More politics, that’s all you really need to know. Congress and the UN are finally starting to move on Darfur. Bout time if you ask me, I had information ready for PAC near the halfway point last year that listed many of the atrocities that have taken place in Sudan, never did get around to showing it. I also find it sad that America needs celebrities to get acting on something. Live 8, poverty, AIDS, and now this; we need some famous movie star to say take us by the coats and give us a firm scolding. What we need is a firm slap in the face and a bullhorn in our ear telling us to wake up a look around at what’s going on in the world. Maybe then we can start to advance our foreign policy.  “Ignorance and arrogance is bad foreign policy” <— A good bumper sticker right there.

When will we, as an American public finally realize that there is a world happening, and that at times (Global Warming, wars, terrorism, poverty, disease, trade etc) there is a global market and other people in the world that we need to care about them as well. If only

if only if only
the wood pecker sighs
the bark on the trees was as soft as
the sky
as the wolf waits below
hungry and lonely
he cries to the moon
if only if only
