Is Nationalism A Good Thing?
Nationalism promotes selfishness and hatred
The authorities try to trap us into supporting nationalism
God created the earth for all human families,
Yet we foolishly regard one another as foreigners
Nobody is an illegal immigrant or an alien resident
There is no difference between nationalism and racism
A nationalist thinks his or her country is the best
Therefore, nationalism is definitely not a good thing

My "Red Ryder BB gun" — is a Baby Alive doll (by Kenner™ circa 1979ish)
O' sweet little love
lifelike, were those lessons
that now... ache my womb
