BAST'S POETRY
Middle People
By
Lloyd G. Bast
We raise our glasses in the air,
And tell each other that we care.
We salute our friends and fellow man,
And all agree, we give a damn.
We speak of God and know the name,
He came and died, but we've no shame.
Mankind still kills, we read the news,
And we all say, we have Strong views.
Yet, starving children pass from life,
We all know well, they suffer strife.
This is what we tell each other,
We sit and wait, and hope another
Will make the first move.
