“A Candy Lion’s very good,
Because he cannot bite,
Nor wander roaring for his food,
Nor eat up folks at night.”

“O Sprengen des Gartens, das Grün zu ermutigen!
Wässern der durstgen Bäume! Gib mehr als genug. Und
Vergiß nicht das Strauchwerk, auch
Das beerenlose nicht, das ermattete
Geizige! Und übersieh mir nicht
Zwischen den Blumen das Unkraut, das auch
Durst hat. Noch gieße nur
Den frischen Rasen oder den versengten nur:
Auch den nackten Boden erfrische du.”

(Bertolt Brecht in “Vom Sprengen des Gartens”)

“Beauty walks a razor’s edge, someday I’ll make it mine
If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born
Come in, she said
I’ll give ya shelter from the storm”

““Pray for peace!” he said. You could feel it in the crowd
My thoughts began to wander. His voice was ringing loud
“It will destroy your family, your happy home is gone
No one can protect you from it once you turn it on”
