THE TENSION IS EASED

By C. RAJAGOPALACHARl

Says Uncle Sam:

“Returned from Geneva has Eisenhower;

The talks were over,

Sweetly they all behaved,

And what is more the nuclear pile is saved,

You know how good I am;

Nuclear war I hate and abhor,

Yes ’tis true this thing of sin we did begin

I guess we made a mess,

But now it can’t be cured

But must be endured:

You see they too have got it now

By stealth or else somehow,

The rascal Reds! and o’er our heads

Some day they sure will burst it,

Their word, who can trust it?

They don’t believe in God, their way is fraud;

Their love of peace is a temporary hoax

But we you know are pious folks;

As for the warnings of learned men

To the truths of Science we bow–

They tell them now, they did not then–

But A and H, for some time now

Hold we must–not for aggressive ends,

But just for righteous defence.”

The tension is eased, the West is pleased;

But Satan’ hopes are undecreased.
