A Poem for Peace Among the Civvers
I hope the best despite some signs,
Making a positive turn on pessimistic designs.
Referring always to the past and what's good,
And reminding people always
Not to dwell on what 'could.'

...and...

Yesterday's faults so easily made plain...by
Insightful critics with nothing to gain...hoping simply
Never to see such errors again.

(darn, 'Yin' is too short...unfair!)

PEACE IN CIV LAND! (...until we determine what bugs might bite us, of course )

There was a young Civver named Yin
whose opinions were viewed as a sin
though he worked in the east
and wished us all peace
And now let the flaming begin!

Darkness makes the sunlight so bright that our eyes blur with tears. Challenges remind us that we are capable of great things. Misery sharpens the edges of our joy. Life is hard. It is supposed to be.

There was a young Civver named Yin
whose opinions were flatulent wind
But he gave up the fight
Upon seeing the light
that dissing CIV3 is a Sin!


...couldn't resist ....
