Literature Text

Much like gallant Mister King,
I, too, have a giant dream
In which we've mended everything
And bind jointly by one seam

Where the only tears fall with smiles
And smiles aren't quite so scant
Where one could crawl for miles and miles
And not utter a single "can't"

Where days thrive with proper care
Where clocks are set just right
Where with every breath of air
There's one more star to light the night

Where we all speak with one voice
So that everyone is heard
Where we can all at last rejoice
With the power of this Word

I dream this dream with all my heart
But then I'm awake in bed
And I wonder, though torn apart,
Is my vision truly dead?
...
"I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: 'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.'"
~Martin Luther King Jr
