I wage war against The stars of this universe. I decry this sky Of unbroken lights And dim futures That will never be. There’s a cluster of dots In the night sky That reminds me of you. They’re vehement, Standing high above my ground; They look down upon me, But maybe I’m above them. Earth could be the zenith, And the stars simply lie At the feet of our existence. But then again, That would be rather egotistical; We must not cheat Our feeble consciousnesses: We are at the mercy of those Eternal spheres of pure, Unforgiving, luminous fire. “And so long as men die, Liberty will never perish” I do hope the statement proves to be true.

Set me free, dear stars.
I wage war against The stars of this universe. I decry this sky Of unbroken lights And dim futures That will never be. There’s a cluster of dots In the night sky That reminds me of you. They’re vehement, Standing high above my ground; They look down upon me, But maybe I’m above them. Earth could be the zenith, And the stars simply lie At the feet of our existence. But then again, That would be rather egotistical; We must not cheat Our feeble consciousnesses: We are at the mercy of those Eternal spheres of pure, Unforgiving, luminous fire. “And so long as men die, Liberty will never perish” I do hope the statement proves to be true.
Let us be everything except for what we are not.
