Sixty-six is now in
full career,
Invested in an activist esthetic.
Xenophobes, take heed and you will hear
The songs that undermine your greed and fear,
Your need to make relations
hierarchic.
So might the world in time
turn empathetic
If oft-sung songs can make delight more dear,
X-ing out the hatreds that hearts
sear.
