Why English is Becoming the World Language by Amanda J CobbWe manipulate the language
into pointed, poisoned words
that drip, drip, drip
into the ears of the unwary
lulling them to deathlike sleep
with promises of peace
and justice
and brotherhood,
and while they dream of green meadows
and happy, well-fed children,
send them to meet their Maker. 09/26/2003 Posted on 09/26/2003 Copyright © 2025 Amanda J Cobb
