IF


If the people can be just Iraqis, 
not just Shiites and Sunnis ;
If the bloodshed can cease ,
then, will there be peace?

If the UN holds sway,
and the Taliban fades away ; 
will there be democracy ,
and the people be free?

If the Israelis guarantee,
a Palestine that's free;
will chances increase,
for a Middle-East, finally at peace?

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
