 Two FrogsThis is for the plotters, two kinds of peopleTwo frogs fell in a can of cream Or so I heard it told The sides of the can were shiny and steep The cream was deep and cold. O what's the use, croaked frog number one Too straight; no help's around Goodbye my friends, goodbye fair world! And weeping still, he drowned. But number two, of sterner stuff, Dog-paddled in surprise. And while he wiped his creamy face, And dried his creamy eyes, I swimm a while, at least, he said Or so, I've heard, he said It really won't help the world If one more frog were dead An hour or two he kicked and swam Not once he stopped to mutter. But he kicked and kicked and swam and kicked and hopped out via butter So, you may think the situation is hopeless. We should do this. We should have that. But we will never gett there. People will never agree. Etc. So be it - maybe. But if you don't try you've lost in any case! So - why not say: Yes we must and we can*. Every voice counts. That's what democracy and freedom is about. *) This comment was written in 2006, pre-Obama! |
