> Now we have to change all our words around.

> I never thought of Peace as a word that was moveable.  All our
> words have been shifted by Consumerism and Militarism.  Democracy
> is gone, America and Freedom are gone.  Peace always stayed there
> in one place.
>
> Peace patiently waited for us to notice the best things about
> ourselves.  Peace always stayed with us. Peace was ignored by the
> governments and the powerful but it was still there - the monument
> that is made of the sky and the wind, our memories of a face and
> our loving touch.  But now we have to change our words around.
> They have taken the word Peace and we'll have to make up a new
> word, a secret signal.
>
> Predator drones will be released tonight destroying the word we
> always depended on.  The flying bomb will go out over the villages,
> sailing over the sleeping children and prayers and friends stopping
> for a laugh.  The bombs will float and hesitate and change
> direction from computers in Florida and Missouri and the soldiers
> at the computers will know that Obama has been awarded the Nobel
> Peace Prize.  And so they will be consumers of a war that is now
> being marketed as a product named Peace.
>
> So – it has come to this.  War has finally captured Peace.
