Storm the gates Was the ominous Overpowering cry How it rest Upon the amassed hearts Lurching forth To graze the untarnished world They must know The perils Of downtrodden kin They must know Of ruin Of unwavering hunger and strife Torch the lot Was the prevailing scream Atop memoriam Before an ever-tranquil creed
