not bad


by wiggly jones, "the little hippie boy"




i am not a bad person
at least i try not to be
i want all children to be happy
and all people to be free


i wish people would be nice forever
and not just on occasion
i wish the trains would run on time
and always wait at the station


i wish there were no countries
no nations, cults, or tribes
no bureaucrats collecting taxes
or officials looking for bribes


i wish there were no religions
or competing ideologies
and everybody would be polite
and say after you, thank you, and please


i wish there were no armies
navies, drones, or pentagons
i wish we could watch the sunrise
and all just get along
