Island
An island we must become
To save us from ourselves,
To save us from within,
The feelings that become parasitic,
Drain us of reason
An island we must become,
It is what must be,
Must be because it must
Or the musk of free life will
Fade and leave us with sorrow
The old and the young meld in their
Mind-set, their freedom to do what they
Wish as their age gives them the right to do
Wrong in the society we
Live and die in.
