Convene from Keepers Rebellious Gallery

Brother. O Brother.
   O when when we were callow 
	In days young  Shakers  of the movement before 
gray & silver turned our locks we held in idol 

	Spree even damned were we 

	Lessen a very score ’til callous became un-sore 
away had you myth into the far-off seeking a northern star  
	Thus did dim of you re-turn filled 
privileged besiege ferrying scripted jots of the novel are 
	deluged in assure 

Brother. O Brother. 
	Dont forthwith tell to me nor else what I do not  
forth I have continued a militant pace 
	Dont mid uncommon lot tell to me nor else  
demur girding resistance rebellious plot

	If you must speak a hair tell 
of owned stead mid factional fight  In the absence 
	tell of owned gallant march for quality rights 

	If adapt if no longer a sworn knight 
tell of owned rationalism of moralism the plagiarism of 
Quisling plight ill-gots   Are you not at will zealot  

Brother. O Brother. 
	Here in the brawling depth the course bowl clear  
onward the struggle un-stop  
	You we in pledge had warrant to our brethren aged  
to carry the pillars in lift 

O out furthest yon you hither re-turn elope dystopia sum utmost grift   
	—whitewashed literacy  alien pensive — these snares  gate 
earnest mental width so readily turncoat gift  
	in errand of handmade suits and seasoned goose  
be too un-loathed the dandy one who tend the noose 

	Steady are the angered us of sternly force 
undue toil seizing liberty under conquer 

Brother. O Brother.  
	If for reasons untold at sun’s godly will alms’ shine 
shalt fetch flicker of brotherly chime 
	O the left-behind aggrandizing autocrat-kneeler sprawl  
as liken wayward owl  
	cant find luminous in eyes of kinship kind — formed 
across absolutist allured far-off whereat darken desert loom 

	Muse this   Steely-dusk rise leap desert’s sandy sweep   
to the heavens it seeps to hand the moon its imposing greet   
	if for reasons untold
