A person who is fundamentally honest doesn't need a code of ethics. The Ten Commandments and the Sermon on the Mount are all the ethical code anybody needs. - Harry S. Truman


for Bernard C., Katryn D., Brenda Youngerman




1.




No jargon of Plato, Aristotle


No Nietzsche


No Kant


Only simple truth I have in mind


Solid truth


Sermon on the Mount takes care of us




2.




No Freud, no Marx


I find the key


A golden key


There it is


Ten Commandments


Nuclear powers will shiver


They don’t know what they are doing




3.




What are you waiting for


How far away from truth you are


The solution , find at last


Think of the Ten Commandments


Beautiful earth is paralyzed


Because you don’t remember Sermon on the Mount


Because you don’t remember Ten Commandments


Come home out of dragon’s trap


Come home




4.




You say: we cannot waste time


I told you we have no other way


Be righteous, humble, pure in heart


Now
