I was surfing through the channels when I came to P.B.S., who would have thought it was to cause me such emotional distres. A true story of ethnic cleansing in a country called Rwanda, where were all the prosters,where was Jane Fonda?. They had quickly changed the channel so they would'ent have to see, that those who let it happen represented you and me. I know that millions die each year from hunger and disease, i've seen the adds a thousand times "help us won't you please. So why I kept on watching is a mystery to me, I should have tuned into M.A.S.H. on channel fifty-three. They said there was no oil in the ground, and no strategic minerals to be found. The location offered us no military need, no Corperate cash crops to fuel our greed. They buy no computers,cokes,or cadilacs, their just a lot of dirt poor Blacks. The Whiteman's burden we tried to meet, till they draged our Boys throuht the street, and thats one mistake we'll not repeat. So the ones who proudly wore the blue bureau, climed into their trucks and drove away. the look upon that young girls face begging them "PLEASE STAY", still haunts my soul each and every day. Hacked with machetes untill they were dead, their blotted corpses chocked the river and turned it red. One hundred thousand men women and children, now two, it's just another trible war there's nothing we can do. Three hundred thousand burchered Tutee's soon became four, then five hundred thousand,and five hundred thousand more. True belivers in the Son of the Holy Virgin Mary, all alone the Colonial Cross they had to carry. Now you will not find them under tombstones in some quaint cemetery, their mummys in the churches where they sought out sanctuary. The U.N. would have stayed and saved them I realy do belive, if only they had been more like Ward,June,Wally, and the Beav. So stay tuned to Wheel Of Furtune and Jeoperdy, and block the P.B.S. channel from your T.V., or you may find yourself like me, Damming all the Globle Powers that let it be.
