What A Wonderful War!
By CHRIS BEUTELMAN
Let's look back on World War One,
My, it was such jolly fun,
And for all the good it bore,'
It should have lasted twelve years more.
Wilson said the war should be
Fought to save democracy;
Safe the world was made to be
For World War Two, and maybe Three,
Watch that boy cross no-man's-land,
Whoops! A mine blew off his hand!
This occurred so could begin
Prohibition, boot-leg- gin.
Victim of a fate so cruel,
Petain saved France from Germany's rule;
World War Two saw Petain's fall,
Deemed a traitor, disgraced by all,
Saved from death by Charles DeGaulle.
See the bodies at Belleau Wood,
Sacrificed so that businessmen could
Jump from roof tops as a sign
They lost their shirts in '29.
Hail to thee, o League of Nations,
Tribute to war's devastations;
Neville Chamberlain and you
Appeased yourselves into world War l\vo.
United Nations, hail to thee!
Are you a tribute to World War Three?
Germany's enemies ruthlessly hit her
After the war — so better for Hitler.
Power politics at Versailles
Made Germany pay — and the whole world cry
When Hitler's star rose in the sky.
Do not blame that poor old Kaiser,
War lias made us none the wiser;
Laugh at war, its sorrows and pain,
Laugh, on penalty of going insane.
So let's have a toast to World War One,
My, it was such jolly fun;
Do not dwell 011 who's to blame,
Drown the blood in good champagne.
Occupation of A Witch
By CHRIS BEUTELMAN
Behold! It's a hag with straggly hair,
And .rotten teeth, ugliness laid bare—
She is a witch, burn her at the stake!
Gouge out her eyes, her ashestake,
Gouge out her eyes, her ashes take,
And scatter in the deepest lake.
Conforms she not to our village life;
She gave the evil eye to a goodly wife,
Who soon after fell on a butcher knife*,
Goes she hot to church at all,
A ready servant for Satan's call,
An instrument of her own downfall.
A civil tongue she has for none,
Friend to beggars, peddlers, other scum,
Insulting the aldermen when they come
To tell her to change and mend her ways;
States she her right to live her days
However she chooses, to their amaze.
Burn her! Bum her! She must die!
The whole town she dares defy!
Watch the flames leap toward the sky!
The witch is dead; the town goes back
To its daily life; but alas, alack!
The town fill forever be shrouded in black,
Have a whirling good holiday!
Is All Wood Painted Bare?
By KATY BAUERLE
£aey white filters hazy blue,
And hazy blue passes on to where?
Chilly clear rolls over rocky smooth;
Must rocky smooth end over there?
Warmth of light bursts blazing flame,
Must blazing flame pass into black?
Cool green plays in passing soft.
Will the passing soft end corning back?
Aching empty sees all things,
But do all?things pass through all eyes?
Resounding hollow fills familiar sounds;
Must familial- sounds end tortured cries?
Willing- weak reaches standing' strong,
And the standing strong passes where away?
Weakened strong touches foolish wise;
Yet, does not even foolish wise end rotted clay?
Warm clear rolls down pink soft,
And pink soft passes on to whore?
The senseless stranger passes between old wood;
Tell me—is all wood painted bare?

The World We Know
I
| By FLORA V. MORTON
j The night was dark; the pale moon high;
! Soft clouds floated in a velvet sky.
b The inky blackness enshrouded an earth.
I; Torn apart by hatred, destitute of mirth.
1" The gray-filled shadows softened the blow
j; Of the earthly ugliness we've come to know.
j;1 Never again will the moonlight show
The seeds of hatred that we sow.
The race of man has vanished for good,
Now the shadows fall on a haunted wood.
Where once man's love could know no bounds,
People hunted and found the grounds
For a hate so terrible that it seemed
To have the qualities of a nightmarish dream.
