Poem by Johnny Hart, in his B.C. cartoon:
The State of Ship
An evil from the bowels of hell
Has seized our ship of state,
And broke upon its weary bow
The cruel champagne of hate.
They christened it
With sinful accusations born of rage,
Then shook their fists in history’s face
And wrote a brand-new page.
God called a youthful man of force
And placed him at the helm,
Whom we endorsed to steer a course
That evil cannot whelm.
A superhuman task
Is laid before our dragon slayer,
So let’s lift up our shining knight-
With all our might – through prayer!
