American Favor/Just Because
"Just because of American Favor some people think this way.''
Another day of American favor, our lives to contemplate.
The body tones with rhythmic beats - 96 to 98.
We seek to please the heart with sales or cheap, wholesale deals.
This is the stuff that fills up time between the daily meals.
Just because we happen to hear, we take in worldly news.
If more important stuff occurs, it will cease all that ensues.
Suppose we had to pack up home and family in our car.
Evacuate in traffic jams from bombs and travel far.
Pretending strong to please ourselves, in American favor we trust,
“Forever and a day.”
Just because it is here right now, doesn’t mean that it will stay.
