WHERE DO THE CHILDREN PLAY? Well I think it ' s fine building Jumbo planes, or taking a ride on a cosmic train, switch on summer from a slot machine, Yes, get what you want to, if you want, ' cause you can get anything. I know we ' ve come a long way, we ' re changing day to day, But tell me, where do the children play? Well, you ' ve cracked the sky, scrapers fill the air, but will you keep on building higher till there ' s no more room up there? Will you make us laugh, will you make us cry, will you tell us when to live and when to die? I know we ' ve come a l ong way, we ' re changing day to day, But tell me, where do the children play? 9

FACADES as i look at peoples ' opaque facades, i tremble, knowing i reveal a wad of tangled, Sincere emotions, i try to appear like others and hide behind a shadow of cliches, smiles, and polite ha ha ' s but i yearn to grow beyond the shallow depths of their love ' i yearn, i wish, that i would see someone who wants transparency to show what he feels without wavering but i fear it is almost too late for me, because to be transparent is to give to everyone you see, to know the assets of love” and to be transparent is so very painful, i’m afraid. 11
