DREAMS a comparison Idealist--------- Land of never-ending mysteries; Glorious panoramas, scintillating scenes, Cool waters trickling Down verdured brooks. Life is wonderful! Fawns bound beside tripping nymphs, Ephemeral creatures with flowing capes That flirt with the wind Beneath azure skies. Life is wonderful! Realist--------- Land of full, weary, salacious days That bore from never-ending dawn to nocturnal black; At night, fateful dreams Uncanny nightmares; Life is futile! Wanton wenches who twist and glide Inviting, beckoning, ubiquitous yet distant, Smiling, our of reach Sardonically remind -- Life is futile! Escapist--------- At times this is worth living for, This world of hell and hate, aloof and arrogant, But yet friendly, warm; A bosom friend. Life is ever changing. At times, They are golden princesses To be worshipped; upheld as fragile gods, But yet tiny playthings Of unknown fate -- Life is ever changing. --Harry Jenkins, Jr. SONG OF THE ROCKETEERS (To the tune of "Song of the Vagabond") Sons of strength and daring, Down the spaceways faring -- We are the Cosmic Racketeers! Man of steel and granite, We will guard your planet -- We are the Cosmic Rocketeers! Upward, upward, upward to the stars! Upward, upward, thundering to Mars! Venus shines beside us, Saturn's rings will guide us -- We are the Cosmic Rocketeers! --Fred W. Fischer
