EASTERN MAN, WESTERN MAN
Eastern man walks slowly
Afraid of the flash in the sky,
Western Man walks swiftly
Less reason why.
Eastern man walks slowly
Afraid of the bolt from the blue,
Western man walks swiftly
Blind to the view.
Eastern man walks slowly
Shakes as the rockets boom,
Western man walks swiftly
Swiftly to his doom.
-- Guy Amirthanayagam
