A Task Undone

Totalitarian schemes
Machiavellian dreams
A turn of the screw
Brings us to you
Children no more

From nursery rhymes
To battle hymns
We come bearing standards
Of battle and of living
Our lives our way

Take us
Leave us
Love us
Hate us
Accept us
Reject us
Welcome us
Or just turn around
And go straight to hell



A quality of ignorance,
Self-deception may be
Necessary to the poet's survival


-Jim Morrison
