Let's All Bake a Loaf of Bread Tonight!

Tonight, let us all bake a loaf of bread
The earth would be so happy!
Because we all would be doing something by ourselves
working together to feed our bodies
Then we can each sit down and learn to appreciate...
---the flour, grown from stalks of wheat
---the sugar, grown from stalks of kö
---the water, gotten from earth
The water
The water that grew the flour
The water that grew the kö
The water that sustains you,
flows through your body, that keeps all of us alive
Then we can think of, and see, where this wheat was grown
where the sugar cane was planted,
how long these plants have sustained us
and kept us growing strong
Then maybe we can focus on the environments of those countries, and feel what they feel
When you feel a pain, as you see
as you appreciate me
         life says
you will feel our pain
Our countries die in vain
so that you may live in vain
Disease comes from the injustice of knowing that your food comes a place that suffers
and so too shall people suffer
but look at Bush?
is he okay if you do not believe?
