DARK - by Luke Sital Singh
There is a story behind this track which I cannot tell you at the moment ......
You are the dark of the world
When all is brightness and dazzle
You are a deepening mystery
When life is a surfeit of simple solutions
You are the nagging doubt and secret sceptic
When everyone believes so much
You are jangling discord, right out of tune
When all the sounds are harmony
You are abstract art of paint and poem
When our propaganda makes everything clear
You are parched throat, desert defeat
When there’s water, water everywhere
You are the silent absence, gone-missing god
When the cacophony of belief is deafening
You are uncharted journey, road less travelled
When we’re all mapped-out. Been there, done that
You are stranger in the night, throwing us to the ground
When all we want to do is get away
You are the cloud of unknowing
When we know–it-alls, know it all
You are never ready and take for ever
When we want it now and cannot wait
You are the dark of the world
When all is brightness and dazzle

Beautiful Human Person.
Pip and the BHP
Someone told me long ago, I was a BHP
And though since then many years have passed
Those words still come back to me
He said that I am Beautiful, a gorgeous sight to behold
That though at times I’ll feel the strain
I’m more precious and valued than gold
He said that I’m a Human, a creation most amazing
That fashioned by the Lord himself
Means nothing in life should faze me
He said I am a Person, not lost in obscurity
But part of a giant, master plan
Designed with God’s surety.
Though there have been some times of doubt, and certainly of pain
Remembering I’m a BHP
Has renewed and encouraged again.

BECOMING HUMAN
Help your students become human.
Your efforts must never produce learned monsters,
skilled psychopaths,
educated Eichmanns.
Reading, writing, arithmetic are important only
if they serve to make our children more humane.
