card-
pack:
HEVENU SHALOM ALEICHEM
why should we send our friends
to sleep
with little pecks upon the cheek
with fond caresses
and what seems
a little fuel for their dreams
we're told that it's so very nice
and if we don't we're cold as ice
as they might have to speculate
upon their fear upon their hate
so we go on just as we should
within a script of hollywood
and with limp body by our side
pretending it's not suicide
leave the mind another day
when we will think and even pray
to know the fullness of our joy
dependent not on girl or boy
