peace on earth
you should consider
coming along
we’re gonna go high
high into the sky
without ever leaving
the ground
but first we’re gonna
cross an ocean
followed by a desert
perhaps resting at an oasis
to power down & recharge
soon thereafter
we’ll be climbing trees
and the tallest of mountains
knowing full well
each & every day
shall be our last
once on top
we’ll see for ourselves
so-called armed conflicts
no longer exist
in this little world of ours
may two thousand twenty-five
