Woodstock Manifesto

Woodstock Manifesto

Imagine what it would be like

To be

With half a million people

Who smiled

radiant togetherness

And to feel a part of something

Born out of the statue of liberty's womb

"Force is the midwife of a society

Pregnant with a new society"

WE are the fetus

WE are the energy

WE run raw in the rain

and make the earth tremble with our music

Sitters behind desks

THROW DOWN YOUR PANTS!!

COME to WOODSTOCK

COME to LOVE

Can you imagine sharing

Nakedness and blood and music with half a million people

Who loved you

Can you imagine what it was like

To be one of so many

revealing

In the rain mud orgy of Hendrix music

Can you imagine standing in thigh deep mud

and digging it

Despite non HUMAN roadblocks

We CAME

And showed them

the POWER

Of our revolution

And showed the world the new age

Lemmings they call us

We have no reply but pity
