What will–?

April 13, 2021
Guardian Never to know The pleasures of The Arts

What do you Protect except For your place and Your part?

Some great scheme Of society Never to be Questioned

Raised to rule To kill for A promise Unfulfilled

As the Citizens You're made to protect Rebel as they try To freely express

Banished at the gate Never allowed to relate Their tales which Have been judged by the keepers

And what if your Guardian raised true Were to pick up your lyre And sing your heart's desires?

No Freedom for the programmed to do… No art for the philosopher to pursue…
