After Reading the Light
I have had a look through the pages albeit on line
Of an independent newspaper at signs of the Times
I can see many points, and true doctors concerns
I see many reports that so many haven't yet learned
I can't say I'm a personal aquintant of all but into many
A greivance does my sympathy fall, there are some
Views I don't find affinity with, yet that's realities portion
If the sense of truth is your quest no lie will stay hid.'
I didn't find sunbeams or talk of good times yet there
Seems such determination and for one, that suits fine
We really need all the courage, all the trailing of truths
It won't be so easy, for the old and the green youths
Yet we have true effort in the crew of the light, its
A paper to peruse; and hold notice; may the people
Take notice the hard fight; to get unbiased true
Views, and real news.'
