I want to get filthy rich from writing poetry
That is impossible!
I write poems about dwarves and elves
Sometimes I write about Israel
Sometimes I worry about what will happen in the future
Meeting some nice women recently
That is all to the good!
What is Peace
Peace is not the product of terror or fear.
Peace is not the silence of cemeteries.
Peace is not the silent result of violent repression.
Peace is the generous,
tranquil contribution of all to the good of all.
Peace is dynamism.
Peace is generosity.
It is right and it is duty.
However, sometimes it take
blood and guts,
sorrow,
soul searching,
chastising,
even war,
to achieve
what is peace.
