Cause I’ve noticed some bodies quite eerie
I see gigantic beings...

Exracted from Gerald Nforche's Epic, The Slave's Tale

And as days tumbled away, we staggered
Along, knock-kneed, dead beat and haggard.

The trouble with idiot lights,
You see, it’s a problem
That goes, perhaps,
Farther than me.

There's abundant ignorance
That floats in the bog
In a kingdom where machines
