Honor salute and speak To the corner standing flag Do you remember how the days of school were Indivisible separate worlds Compare contrast These dreams absurd Placid cla*sroom faces Breathe in the features Of a demographics death map trilogy Children read them well Not to bury 3 of 4 sons As the likes of chivalry Not to take 6 of 30 bills To manufacture Corpus Christi And so you think it can be so serene History's most intolerable famine Has clutched our global tranquility Reaped the lives of children Maladies collaborate With cyclic despair Infanticide clamors to 20 times more In 4th and 5th Worlds The poor have always been Beside us Amid us Death has always been As million cease 15 million that's an annual reap Add divide multiply sum 41 thousand!
