A Simple Solution...

Angels hide in our shadows...

We are all casting one,

being the one to cast a shadow big enough can save the ones who

cannot cast a shadow at all,

Praise the dead,

Abolish the living,

rise above the living,

and never fall back under them,

we cannot see the ones who mean all the most to us,

but we stand up for the ones who desire the insecurities we throw away,

we thank the one who's watching over us like an aviant creature caring for the young,

we cannot worship something that is seeing all this destruction unfold,

put down your fear,

wield your sword!

defend the young!

and honor those charishable,

light the fire!

lay in the ashes,

and see what you are like at your true form.
