The strings were pulled of a bitter signal Erratically hateful in their draw Commencing the judgment of her mental state As a bloodthirsty crowd looked on in awe
All her pleading notations were met with objection By all their unfeeling eyes Who merely wished to bear witness to the surrender Of sanity and to see its quiet demise
Suddenly without warning an onrush of light Blinded the probing eyes of the crowd A curve of great decision was suspended in space As they began to read her crimes aloud
Guilty as charged a voice rang out from the light For moving against the grain For not following behind the shadow of others She is guilty, she must be insane
Completely unnatural, no control of her faculties She cannot possibly be competent, the voice loudly rang Daring to be optimistic in the face of grievous pain She holds no resentment, she must be insane
Her sentence was pronounced for the entire crowd to hear Claiming her incompetent and unfit All the eyes in the crowd remain blinded by the light Yet she doesnβt mind at all as she smiles and sits
She smiles into the faces of the blinded crowd Knowing she has not changed a bit ****** she may be to the unfeeling eyes of the blind However, they can never take her own happiness
