The gravediggers are unemployed.
\nSoldiers march with joy in their steps.
\nThere are free flowers sold on every street corner.
\nThe prisons are fully voluntary.
\nThe cops have begun to talk down
\n the few angry ones out there.<\/p>\n
There’s a chicken in every pot and
\na basketball hoop in every driveway.
\nIf you don’t have the cash – they just give you the groceries.
\nJobs galore but only if you want one.
\nWalls, barriers, borders – they’ve all been obliterated.<\/p>\n
People hug strangers openly in the street.
\nYoung people live old.
\nOld people live older.
\nEven the president of the United States stands naked, blissful. <\/p>\n
I’ve begun to smile.
\nIt’s against the law not to smile.
\nI am a snake wearing a yellow polka dot bikini.
\nI’m making love to Gandhi and Lev joins in. <\/p>\n
Brrrr. I wake up. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
