The Great Society

Once a willowy man made his way across the Earth
He saw shining seas and emerald trees and
The worms laughing in the dirt
He would memorize the planets
And the stars above
And dream a secret dream
About the ones he loved…
Once a slippery man, made his way across the sea
He saw tiny fish and made a wish and
Changed into you and me
They would float upon their backs
To watch the stars above
And dream a secret dream
About the ones they loved…
