Shall all with strength sleep away their energies,
and shall all stripped of life huff and puff?
//
Shall all dressed with ability destabilize,
shall those bare of moral go on tough?
//
What is this nonsense?
Enough! Enough! Enough!
//
Can electric run through torn circuits,
and shall black holes present us light?
//
Why does man call upon calamity,
is he not the victim of his own plight?
//
Enough with this nonsense!
Enough! Enough!
//
Where were you then,
when those thirsty stretch-
ed their hands?
//
What brings you now,
when there remain,
no such demands?
//
Shall we forgive,
and forget?
//
Shall we forget?
Shall we forget?
//
What about compensation,
and consequences?
//
What about change,
and lessons?
//
What about regret?
What about regret?
//
Enough! Enough!
//
What is this upside down era!
What is this upside down era!
//
What is this BBC, FOX, Al-Jazeera!
Souls being sold for a pound,
a dollar, a dime, a lira!
//
Enough! Enough!
Enough with this nonsense!
Enough! Enough!
//
What happened to men of stature,
nobility, and stand!
//
What happened to true conquerors,
hearts more so than land!
//
What happened to those seeking drops,
through deserts in joy!
//
What happened to hearts pounding with purpose,
never distracted by decoy!
//
Where are you humans,
where are you?
//
Why are we calling!
Why are we calling!
//
Is this a generation of thriving?
This is advancement and prosperity?
//
How appalling!
How appalling!
//
Enough! Enough!
Enough! Enough!
//
Leave the devil!
Leave the devil!
//
Most sly!
Most sly!
//
Befriend The Special!
Befriend The Special!
//
Most High!
Most High!
//
Who is this friend of yours,
what does he call you to,
blood, battles, war?
//
Oppression,
suppression,
depression,
more?
//
What is this nonsense!
What is this nonsense!
//
Enough! Enough!
Enough! Enough!
//
Human has left humanity,
We have been left with I-T-Y.
//
Innocence is being tortured,
I see why.
//
Incompetent, irrational, intolerant, idiots!
Tainted with treachery and tantrum,
Training to terrify?
//
Why? Why? Why?
//
You yammering yacks!
Making this world yackety-yack!
Yuck! Yuck! Yuck!
//
That's what we say,
Yuck!
//
What is this nonsense?
Enough! Enough! Enough!
//
What now?
What now?
//
More death?
More lives?
//
Enough!
Enough!
//
More life!
More life!
More life!
More life!

I AM
This is not who I thought I would be. Before my family was captured and forced into slavery, I had aspirations of becoming a wealthy business owner or possibly a scholar and philosopher. Becoming a warrior was the furthest thing from my mind. Unfortunately, our Roman conquerors had other plans.
