In The News-May Day


Free Speech

Some lay on tracks or hug a tree...
they march for “cause celebrity.”
They merely want to strut some stage
and boast their name shares the marquee.

But, we must vow defend "free speech"...
pledge time and ear be granted each.
Yet, know our chore is to deduce
if good or ill does prod or preach.

It’s sad a cause on May Day
too often leads to melee.
