There seems to be more sorrow,         With the kindergarten killings and all,         Because there are more people; There is more good to be done,         More lives to be saved,         Because there are more people. There is more pain to alleviate,         Because there are more people. There is more joy in life         Because there are more people. There are more happy children playing         Because there are more people. There are more children dying         Because there are more people. It is good to remember the relation         between right and wrong:         The one only exists         because of the other. Thank God for the killings.
