Two Roads

Passover

By HARRY KOYNER

They all travel one road
In quest of power and fame.
Their ways mostly are the same,
Terror, murder, jail, the flame.

They all travel one road
Down to infamy and shame.
Their end is ever the same;
Defeat, failure, a cursed name.

Tyrants all take one road
And all play a ghastly game.
Alas, the people are to blame—
They don't think, gullible, tame.

And Moses conceived a new road
Built on moral codes (a noble sin)
And rules of life to fit God's frame
With justice, as man's just claim.

Pharoah designed that road—
But Moses in the Lord's name
To the enslaved rescue came
And to freedom's right laid claim.
