I tried many times to put into words my feelings about yesterdays events in Boston. In the end, however, I have to fall back on the words of a much better man with words of peace than I will ever be. George Harrison. We must all beware of the darkness that grows in our minds when contemplating a horrible event.
Peace and healing to our friends in Boston and around the world that are touched by this horror, in whatever form it may manifest.
Watch out now, take care
Beware of falling swingers
Dropping all around you
The pain that often mingles
In your fingertips
Beware of darkness
Watch out now, take care
Beware of the thoughts that linger
Winding up inside your head
The hopelessness around you
In the dead of night
Beware of sadness
It can hit you
It can hurt you
Make you sore and what is more
That is not what you are here for
Watch out now, take care
Beware of soft shoe shufflers
Dancing down the sidewalks
As each unconscious sufferer
Wanders aimlessly
Beware of maya
Watch out now, take care
Beware of greedy leaders
They take you where you should not go
While weeping atlas cedars
They just want to grow, grow and grow
Beware of darkness (beware of darkness)
