A symphony of truth alone,
Dictated, printed, beamed so wide,
Where independent thought had died.
Newspeak choked the rebel tongue,
And every sunrise sadly sung
The praises of the...

Between mortals and the spirit world,
Such as the eternal salvation of man
From the curse of sin and its hold.
The paradox of a meek virgin conceiving
After being by the Spirit overshadowed,
And then...

Until infinity

The Black Panthers seemed the perfect solution.

Until she found fraud and met a quick end.

Stumbling over petty discrepancy.
Walking on the edge of discontent;

Drowning in sorrow for self inflicted...
