Hippies

All about the peace.
They all have an inner beast.
The beast when let loose battles government tooth and nail.
Sometimes they succeed, sometimes they fail.
 When the beast is restrained, these men and woman look harmless.
They go by life shower less.
They are vegan and are against violence.
If caught in the act in defile they will be silenced.
One hippie dead, more to go.
The way they live their lives they all die in a flow.
How could they throw their lives away at such a constant rate?
All this violence brews so much hate.
They will never give up no matter how many die.
For answers they look to the sky,
It will never lie.

Ouch..one little two little three little hippies.:) They sound sort of radical and rebellious, as though they didn't like living within the box? Oh, the bygone era of the 'hippie'. Not liked by some, but heard by most? Wishing you the best...Mikki
