The beauty of the dream Even fools are allowed in Misinformed and crawling on narrow stony roads Yet in this land anything goes We all have the right to our opinions and views Apparently even old fools One day soon Guns will be taken So that freedoms truly rule As the clowns dance One day Poets shall rule Remember this! Obama was no fool!

Great. Some countries had playwrights for their leader. Philosophers were kings. Retroactive analysis and 'free verse' is not just nostalgia. Let's do a dance with the circle...

See you on our hill, Great Bear! Is this specious? Perhaps, but I love it all the same.

Guns will not be taken, Arthur, but I hope they will be regulated in a better way so that when poets have their say they will be safe in every way.
