Bless the Hippies
I think the hippies had it right.
Pop a red and watch the lights.
Pray against the cold machine.
Tie-dye the world in tranquility.
Breaking bread with old friends.
Lend your heart to become undead.
BUT
Sometimes the world has blight.
Evil eclipsing the gilded righteous.
Time to put away the peace pipe.
Wade into the muck and fight.
Clip the wing of evil before it flies.
Dust off the camo and put away tie-dye.
BUT
For the most part, the hippies had it right.
