» Poem: Within A Nation
Within A Nation
written by Mars_Phoenix

Strength in numbers,
Justify your right to monopolise,
Within a nation of clones
The few rage against their own;

March two three four,
Work two three four,
Sleep two three four,
Do or die - dream a lie.

Wake up in a web,
Fight and you will be made to forget,
Who you are or why you care,
About the people that fill the streets
Till its ready to burst.

And you will:
March
And you will:
Sing
And you will:
Rage
And you will:
Take back your own.

The the sound will filter through the night,
In their towers they will hear the roar,
This is the moment in which we stand and fight,
Barricades and riot police we'll walk through walls:
Shadows behind their eyes,
Mass produced drones,
We think and feel,
They do what they're told.

Strength in numbers,
Together united,
Individuality awakes reality.

"Its not the blood you spill that gets you what you want, its the blood you share, your family, your friendships, your community - these are the most valuable things a man can have."
