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 ?
