 Harry Sweeden. My life in verse.

See no... Hear no... Speak no...


I shall see no evil though I know that evil
is everywhere to be seen,
it lights our streets and paves the way
for those hot nights that we all dream.

I shall hear no evil though I know that evil
is everywhere to be heard,
it lights our streets and paves the way
we learn from every word.

I shall speak no evil though I know that evil
is everywhere to be told,
it lights our streets and paves the way
for memories when we're old.

But then we die and evil pushed aside
is forgotten and put to rest,
only then we'll know if evil had control
or at least... we tried our best?
