Distant Thunder
We were there,
but we weren't
We took part,
and we didn't
There was war,
with all affected
There was death,
and some objected
There was music,
we got lost in
Assassinations,
left us frozen
Alienation,
drove us inward
Graduation,
for beginners
Half a century,
now forgotten
Ten short years,
in time begotten
Raged a storm,
of hope and wonder
Alive today,
-a distant thunder
