Magic Boson Mass
(Upon reading in Wikipedia about Higgs Bosons)
(In honor of the people of Libya, 08-21-2011)
You are not clay for my hands
I am not clay for yours
I can not write a constitution to make you clay for me
I can not make a law to make you clay for me
I can not incorporate to make you clay for me
I can not create a clever strategy to make you clay for me but
If you are willing
I can pretend you are clay for me long enough
To convince you long enough
To hurt you
If you are willing
I can hurt you long enough
To convince you long enough
To give up
Despots rise from us
We create them
From the power we use
To create heroes
Whatever is done and said
You are not clay
I am not clay
The Maker who made us
The Dervish galaxy spinner
The Boson magic mass maker who
Made foolish clay manipulators
Made clever clay to manipulate clay manipulators
Even made more clever clay to refuse to be clay
There will always be
Fools
Heroes
Despots
Despot financers
Fools paying attention to despots
Fools fighting despots
Lots of fighting fools
Good ideas bleeding in to clay
In India wearing homespun
In Memphis on the mountaintop
Good clay just trying to learn from the children
Good clay just trying to lead the children
Who will rise again from the clay some day
With magic boson mass some day
To become the power
We already have
