(Written during a WBUR fund
raising campaign)
ALL THINGS CONSIDERED
seven
days a week,
And things that
you consider make me sick...
All these man-made
and natural disasters,
Clashes between
the slaves and their masters,
Corporate crime
and poisonous refuse
And bloody wars
and military coups
And AIDS and drugs
and brutal revolutions
And all the problems
that have no solutions...
And all this at
your listener's expense...
Please, please,
consider something else!
