DIVIDED NATIONS

There they sat all roundabout

Discussing the oil the borders and the bombs

When suddenly a voice shouted out “Wait”

Time out...Something here is drastically wrong

I would like for you all to think for a moment

Think! Without uttering a word

Think of the people for whom you are here

Of what you all agree is absurd

You are called the President, and you, I believe a King?

Ambassador? Prince? Prime Minister? Queen?

You all haven’t accomplished a thing!

You are for you, and you are for yours, and you can’t make up your mind

You want more, and you’ll take less, and you want equal

Let’s all have a meeting of the mind
