Forum Post: Upon Ignorance Empires are Built

All that was squandered,

All that was forgotten,

The lives which were shuttered,

From wisdom long begotten,

Upon ignorance empires are built.

Waiting for one with reason,

To make them wilt.

Where it is sought,

Wisdom never is for naught.

Fool is he don't look,

Or too wise to read a book.

Freedom is for thee educated,

Dumb be forever subjugated.

Alas, unfortunately we see again stupid folk marching off to war in the name of their country. If they are not killed, then they will have those who they killed forever haunting the shadows of their souls.

"We let it all slip away"

"Faces that have disappeared in time Find me wrapped in glass and slowly soaked in lime All my friends have pictures made to make you cry I've seen this and wondered What I've done to calcify...

(I ignore you) As i close my eyes, I feel it all slipping away (I come towards you) We all got left behind, We let it all slip away ".........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Buttocks get red,

Faces get blue,

If you sit on your ass,

Your government will put the screws to you...
