Waiting Nation

Rush like a wind The bad seed to find A hallowed news spread Wheat eat for bread Jubilant road scream For they watch long the scene With the dim eagles eyes Fading in the cold of ice. May 27, 1999 was the year Hooked and cooked for us to wear Peacefully in troubles mind A prophet to find Democratic in its office Dictator in its practice A new way to sow Masses entangled in row. The fish eye-view high Cut off the eagles eye The wisdom of Solomon sink Makes the Nation sick For the cancer was planted planted in the head of the dead Dead that ravage the living Living eight plus four season. Who will bell the cat A saggy Nation sat In a hallowed posture wait Hoping to have a saint For in 1960 she wait Wait upon 1999 to wait A wait in 2007 that brings heat And beyond 2007 she waits to eat.
