"View"

Original text in yellow, anagram in pink.

"Wild animals never kill for sport. Man is the only one to whom the torture and death of his fellow creatures is amusing in itself."

War, nemesis, torment, ordeal, strike, affliction, lash, woe are human inventions... So many dull words for the futile, hostile plight.

Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

Imagine no lie, wars!
Ooh, and nobody ignores
Hungry and poor -
Everybody sated and secure!

Imagine there's no borders
Just friends and supporters.
Ooh, no rivalry in Middle East -
There is understanding and peace!

Ooh, imagine no eerie murders!
Ooh, eliminate killers or slaughters!
Just emotion, beaus and lovers,
Daffodils, lilies ...Ooh, eye flowers!

Ooh, imagine no 'filthy',weepy', 'uncleanly'!
Ooh, eliminate 'unhappy','awfully unhealthy'!
Ooh, only 'gently', 'lovely',
'Wealthy', 'politely'!

Ooh, imagine no woe, plague, no pain!
Light, Titillation to obtain.
Ooh, Bloom, Love, Amity!
Ooh, life like total Amenity!

Wait, imagine thee - NO MAMMON!

"In this world there are only two tragedies. One is not getting what one wants, and the other is getting it. The last is much the worst."

The witty honest Oscar Wilde statement. We are egoists with the internal, hidden, wrong nature - total egotists! Oh, nothing's right!
