Through many years of darkened history,
Times plagued by the reimagines of the human mind,
Rewritten histories of blatant untruths,
Yet to (re)conquer we must pay OUR dues?
What’s ours is theirs, they said, what’s theirs is theirs,
So we didn’t have it any other way,
Get mugged with a smile on ya face,
If stories were told with a little more compassion,
I would stand aside and watch my little self beam recklessly,
And find peace and calm immediately after,
If only I knew what they did in centuries past…
