Today
After several hours of daydreaming
Of world peace
The prayers of my imagination were answered
And it was a funny ending
A very funny ending...

On one lost
Every one's religion remained intact
But enlarged
AND
Even the insects danced when the Pope declared
In an encyclical that butterflies
Were angels

But most good endings have potential tragedies

Republicans still thought that free was bad

And the Communists still insisted that selling
Bottled pomp would always be a sin...
