the man who saved my life
sits quiet as stone the day
he dropped the bomb

let's play this game
pretend love

kiss my face
hold your hand

I'll lead you down
to think it's all for you

and in the end
we'll say
goodbye to love

quiet me - silent
heart glassy cool my calm still
You shiver me

this land is mine
I own it root to roof
touch it and you pay

this land is ours
sacred to my people
to generations

this land is yours
for all to keep
a tenuous hold

we are stewards
bought and paid
on this holy ground

sentenced - completed
period - come and see me
I am free

Denis Hills, 90
once sentenced to
death by Idi Amin,
has died

he thought Idi would
be proud to be called
a "village tyrant"

Idi Amin still can't
get the blood
off his hands

Joseph Cullman III, 92
Made Philip Morris a power,
died of natural causes

all the ghosts of
those who died of
lung and throat cancer
mourn his passing

I cannot read this
through my tears
