Which Is Better? by Charles J HannanAnother wall
One side trying to keep another out
Or in...hmmm
Which is better?
Haven't we learned about these walls?
The Great Wall of China
The Iron Curtain
And now...a wall in Jerusalem
To keep the suicide bombers out..
And the honest people in
Which is better?
Wonder if we will see this come down
---In our lifetime
Or in a thousand or so years
Will it become an attraction?
With neither side there
A wall keeping out nothing
Or nothing staying in
Another seperation
For another generation to wonder about
How many walls will it take? 03/01/2004 Posted on 03/01/2004 Copyright © 2025 Charles J Hannan
