A Better World

China will de declared part of the People`s Republic of Tibet; Somalia will send
food parcels to the Swiss and the Mexicans will build a fence to prevent illegal
immigration from the United States. There will be a Queen in Saudi Arabia and
Pussy Riot will be elected to the Duma. The Taliban will build a church in Kabul
and invite the Pope and his wife to open it. Fast food will slow down; the Israelis
will paint their nuclear weapons gay pink and ship them packed as a present to
Iran, North Korea will be leased for a film Happyland,all children will get
the right to vote, North Africa will accept refugees from Italy, a clown will become
President of the World Bank,Facebook will discover that friends are real people,
my sons will learn that my car needs gas, and my wife will stop buying shoes.

And if you thought, that poetry can`t change anything, you are right.

But it`s worth a try, isn`t it ?
