Obsolete Alliances
Punishment without a crime is abuse.
Ignoring everything we smother within is neglect.
Breathing water and sand while
The sun is falling, the sky is torn with it.
The gulfs of god have moved.
We are artists. I direct my life,
A train through a tunnel, only
Rarely crashing. A child
Becoming an adult each
Time.
This is my land and yours is incapable.
You destroyed it so long ago.
Europa both gained and lost.
This wall will last until you surrender.
Nations decay as this one blossoms. Glass
Is a salvation, push it hard enough and it
Will damage you far more than us.
The war divided, at first came the chalk
Your side of the bedroom and mine. Now
We're much older. Save but salvage not.
Liberty blindfolded will fall.
This is the expansion of everything.
