We speak to the master but our voice is like coins down a wishing well Wasted... Our hands clasped up, looking upwards to eyes never staring towards our failed gazes... The shackles upon a minds contemplation wrenched from what is clearly misinterpreted but still is clenched. But there are a growing number that see no master and are slave to none... The shackles of eyes open... There is a master and a slave, through mans voice the master controls the herds.. but now the cane has snapped. Now our own voices are heard, not bowing to another's whim. We are not slaves on bended knee... hands clasped as if we are in the wrong..

The Master & The Slave
We speak to the master but our voice is like coins down a wishing well Wasted... Our hands clasped up, looking upwards to eyes never staring towards our failed gazes... The shackles upon a minds contemplation wrenched from what is clearly misinterpreted but still is clenched. But there are a growing number that see no master and are slave to none... The shackles of eyes open... There is a master and a slave, through mans voice the master controls the herds.. but now the cane has snapped. Now our own voices are heard, not bowing to another's whim. We are not slaves on bended knee... hands clasped as if we are in the wrong..
