For a Dozen Children in Oklahoma City

Jamie Fisk gave us hope.

A country pulled together

For a miracle that happened.

Today gravity is reversed.

There are no safe places.

We eat our lunches far away

from the federal Building

to discuss the Power of

fertilizer and fuel oil:

A story larger than OJ.

This Sunday, the choir will

Sing, "Peace Perfect Peace,

Within this world of sin."

We, captives, like

Baby Jessica stuck in

The bottom of a forgotten

Well, in a new world,

Crying to be rescued.
