Written By The Hermit Poet
You wrap me up in heavy chains
Siphon the blood from my veins
You dictate my every move
Ration my water and food
Even though you crush my pride
I will never comply
The hour glass is emptying fast
I assure you that your control will not last
Your hatred has made you blind
You cannot conceive that your power will be gone in a matter of time
This piece is part of the Rewind Series

the oppressed will keep on, struggling to rise up from under, and, it will be long and hard, and things may not seem to be changing in the present, but in the long wrong, something is, bound to, happen!
