Today I Saw


Today I saw,

not a single person stand up,

not one raised a paw,

no one spoke out.

This raised some doubt,

if leaders were around 

at any point, that have been crowned,

Great.

 

Today I saw no RFK,

who stood up in display,

who sheltered huddled masses,

who taught without clasess,

how we can work together,

to make our lives as light as a feather.

 

Today I saw no RFK

a great man in his day.
