WHERE ARE WE HEADINci
By St. Clair Wirton

~ ~i6'' w ~ Wi
We packed our kits and sailed the seas
And made solemn vow
To bring the war-Iords to their knees
Regardless when and how.
In the achievement Of this aim,
No task was deemed too great
To whack and crack and to defan1e
The heads Of warning states.
The Nations wealth-its industry
Its budding flower of youth
Were spent to attain victory,
Democracy and Truth
But to what's taking place within,
CorruPting every link
That unifies our kith and kin,
We give casual wink.
We pass the buck we say we can't
Track down little band
Mere Pygnnies, lower than the ant
Who take things in their hand.
Keep sowing seeds and bury our heads
Into the sullen nnire;
Then settle down into our beds
Of misery and fire.
