IN THE LAND OF WE


IN THE LAND OF WE……………
A long time ago in the land of green,, there where many
wonders to be seen,, and all the creatures were content as could be…
The furry hippity hoppitys played in the leaves,,
the feathered ones all sung a tune to please,, and the
wild howlers did call thru the night,, whenever the moon was
shinning bright…

Then it fell from a limb up high,, or perhaps from the forest moon
of Endor,, it fell to the ground and made a screaming sound…
It and another where the only ones around…
A strange beastie creature never seen before on the forest floor,,
its body was hairy,, its head was too,, knuckles dragging on the
leafy ground...It walked hunched over on two hairy legs,,
both naked as could be,, a he and a she…
It wandered about and thought,, all this can be mine,, I will rule
over everything on this forest floor…And this it did,,
it ruled over the hippity hoppitys,, the singers in the trees,, and
all the wild howlers from sea to shining sea,, for you see,,
it had many thoughts that went between the he and the she…

Time did not stand still in the land of green,, so more and more
and more of this strange beastie creature was seen…Then one
day as it lay among its kind,, it thought Who am I?,, What am I?,,
then just then,, it decided to called itself WE…Now WE was smart
as could be,, and could do just about anything that it pleased,,
but you see,, I’m afraid it was not very wise,, for it slew all the
hippity hoppitys,, the singers in the trees,, and all the wild howlers
from sea to shining sea,, and even the swimmers that were
under the shining sea…

Time continued on in the land of green,, and more and more of
the hairy WE was seen…Too many for just one land of green,,
so it was that the hairy WE divided its self into many parts and
when out and about to see what could be seen…
Many more lands of green where found and all around the
hairy WE did expand,, so it was,, that there were many many
tribes of the hairy WE…And they slew all the hippity hoppitys,,
the singers in the trees,, and all the wild howlers from sea to
shining sea,, and even the swimmers that were under the
shining sea,, for you see,, the hairy WE was not very wise…

Then it stood alone on a rocky cliff,, and said What if,, What if…
Then it was that the hairy WE started to play with a thing
called atom…The hairy WE was very smart,, and soon it
discovered the many parts of this thing called atom…Now the
hairy WE was never quite satisfied with knowing What is,, What is,,
it always wanted to know What if,, What if…So it was,, that the
hairy WE did smash and bash two of these things called atom
together to see What if,, What if,, and a mighty glowing cloud
was formed rising from the land of green…The hairy WE was
ever so pleased,, it had never seen such things as these…

Time again continued on in the land of green… Now it was that the
many parts of the hairy WE,, became very scornful and mean to
other parts of the WE,, and then one day a part of the hairy WE,,
said enough,, enough,, and then it thought What if,, What if…
So it was,, that the hairy WE did throw a glowing cloud on the
other WE,, it thought its self very smart,, to throw a glowing cloud
at the other WE,, but it was not very wise…For you see,, the other
WE had also learned to play with the thing called atom…
Then all about many glowing clouds were seen over
all the lands of green…

From the blackness of the never-ending void,, the lands of
green could easily be seen,, and all thru the night it was
very bright…Then the lands of green could no longer be seen,,
just a glowing orb in the blackness of the never-ending void…

Time did not stand still in the blackness of the never-ending void,,
and then one day,, if you looked real close,, there just there,,
on the whirling orb,, among the broken rocky cracks,,
there just there,, a very very very small little green could be
seen,, and not one hairy WE at all………………..

The cadence and rhythm of this piece is masterful and intoxicating; just wonderful.
