“A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual death.”--Martin Luther King

Poem
If you
do not fill
your pages
you die
well
you die anyway
but filling the
pages is fun
so why not
run with it while
teasing those who
would not
who would
cry foul and make
a stink and
act like snots
