THE VERY BEST PEACE DANCE EVER HELD ON MARCH 20

Comparisons are odious-war expenses endless
Did you forget someone is fighting 3 wars in your name and on your dime?
At the Capitol,Machelle tweeted when a war woman whooped at us
We held our peace and presented poems and songs
which warmed our arts as we stood "blowing in the wind"
Each smile became solar powered/as chill winds whipped
over PA towers and snatched hats from musicians/we
laughed at the outrageousness of elements anonymous
as every hug and cuddle kept us together /one by one
we listened to each others' dreams and visions
By 2pm the marching band began to lead this orchestra of souls
down Congress,7th, 6th ,back on Congress,down to City Hall
where Guy and Carolyn and Shelley welcomed sweetly
Yes-we danced to the music.Yes-we smiled,too
And took home placards to remind us to bring peace home
We like each other-but do not want to have to do this forever
Wars must cease between us.I declare unilateral peace
and surrender to your best dreaming.See you @Cafe Caffeine!
