NEWS & LETTERS, JUNE 2003

A prayer for fools

Pray for money
Pray for the good life
Pray for enemies
Pray for friends and families
For the crops in the field
The ships at sea,
Bombers in the night sky,
So that bombs that fall upon
Those beneath may taste their death,
Bring them waters flowing ill disease
Weeping children cut down as weeds
God bless those in power over us
God like in their dance.
May we submit to their hypnotic trance
Bend our knees at their suggestion
Slaves for ever and ever with out remission

--Patrick Duffy
