Health Care
  by William Bailey[1;40;36m

  
Nows the time to look within
This thing we call health care,
Is it good and will it work
Or is it just welfare.

Doctors then must pick and choose
Who will live and die,
Snuff out a baby before it's born
And had a chance to cry.

Setting limits on the age
That they can operate,
Put your life within there hands
And they will choose your fate.

There are problems with our health care
But let us choose another,
Questions of life and death should not be left
Up to our Big Brother........

Foreign Lands
  by William Bailey[1;40;36m

  
Break the law in foreign lands
You'll surely pay the price,
They'll put you in a dirty cell
With the rats and mice.

Do Americans really feel
Were all above the law,
They'll strip the clothes from your back
And beat you till your raw.

Not all countries are like ours
It's surely plain to see,
If you break the laws and bend the rules
Stay in this country.

For our land is full of victims
Of our society,
We slap there hands and warn them
And then we set them free........

A Red, Red Rose
  by Robert Burns[1;40;36m

  
O my luve's like a red, red rose,
  That's newly spring in June;
O my luve's like the melodie
  That's sweetly played in tune.

As fair art thou, my bonnie lass,
  So deep in luve am I;
And I will luve thee still, my dear,
  Till a' the seas gang dry.

Till a' the seas gang dry, my dear,
  And the rocks melt wi' the sun:
O I will love thee still, my dear,
  While the sands o' life shall run.

And fare thee weel, my only luve,
  And fare thee weel awhile!
And I will come again, my luve,
  Though it were ten thousand mile.

Woman
  by Nikki Giovanni[1;40;36m
  
  
she wanted to be a blade
of grass amid the fields
but he wouldn't agree
to be the dandelion

she wanted to be a robin singing
through the leaves
but he refused to be
her tree

she spun herself into a web
and   looking for a place to rest
turned to him
but he stood straight
declining to be her corner

she tried to be a book
but he wouldn't read

she turned herself into a bulb
but he wouldn't let her grow

she decided to become
a woman
and though he still refused
to be a man
she decided it was all
right

The Sick Rose
  by William Blake[1;40;36m   

  
O Rose, thou art sick.
The invisible worm
That files in the night
In the howling storm
Has found out thy bed
Of crimson joy,
And his dark secret love
Does thy life destroy.

Days
  by Ralph Waldo Emerson[1;40;36m
  
  
Daughters of Time, the hypocritic Days,
Muffled and dumb like barefoot dervishes,
And marching single in an endless file,
Bring diadems and fagots in their hands.
To each they offer gifts after his will,
Bread, kingdoms, stars, and sky that hold them all.
I, in my pleached garden, watched the pomp,
Forgot my morning wishes, hastily
Took a few herbs and apples, and the Day
Turned and departed silent. I, too late,
Under her solemn fillet saw the scorn.
