The Dress of Distress
The grab show What do they know? What are they looking to find? In the land of the kind? The money that grows on trees A land where there are no dirty knees It’s all there Open and ready to share There’s no barrier to stop this greed A desire to fill the heart with material need Fill and fill and fill Look at all the animals we killed Where is the love? Where are the doves? What age are we in? The age of material sin? It’s an overflow A material rainbow A unicorn princess In one of a thousand sparkly dresses Is there no end in sight? To this human plight Our need, and our greed To fill our empty hearts with this material disease Is there a land That can take us by the hand Hold us dear And calm our material fear? Calm the quest for our salvation from distress The belief that it can be saved by a beautiful dress Where is this land? Where we can hold a calm hand? Written by Zoe LL
