everyone knows everything==
ROY AUGUST HORSTMEYER 1943 (GRANITE CITY ,ILL)
if everyone knows everything
with nothing left to say
would it make a difference, in
the role that people play
would it end the wars
the suffering and pain
if everyone knows everything
would the answers come
why we cant live in peace when
all is said and done
so we struggle for the truth
gather laugh and sing
longing for the moument,
when everyone knows everything
by roy august horstmeyer
