Billy’s Dream by Tony King © 2009
(inspired by Slaughterhouse Five and dedicated to Kurt Vonnegut jr)

The war was a Movie played backwards
As least it was in Billy’s dream
Bombs were sucked up from their holes in the ground
To the planes where they had once been

Craters were once again schools
Bullets sped back to their guns
Bleeding wounds healed themselves over
And smoke cleared away from the Sun

The bombs were sent back to their factories
Dismantled with all of the planes
The Auschwitz carriages came back full
And they kissed as they stepped off the trains

the soldiers turned back into children
to innocence again…. to innocence again
the soldiers turned back into children
to innocence again…. to innocence again

The trenches turned back into fields
From Vietnam to El Alamein
And young men rose up clean from the mud
To their lovers arms again

The rubble turned back into churches
Where they sang their Hymns back from Amen
Medals were melted back into one peace
And Enola was gay once again

the soldiers turned back into children
to innocence again…. to innocence again
the soldiers turned back into children
to innocence again…. to innocence again

And love was returned to the people
Free will taken back from the men
And the apple was put back on the tree
And the garden was Eden again…again….again….again….


the soldiers turned back into children
to innocence again…. to innocence again
the soldiers turned back into children
to innocence again…. to innocence again
