Here we stand and here we fight
All your fallen heroes held and dyed and skinned alive
Listen to the Congress fire
Offering the educated, primitive and loyal
#WelcometotheOccupation #REM #Resist #HopeDespitetheTimes
in this age of cocks through bacon slicers
terrine of soul
terrain of holes
where the rain went
spirit charcuterie sparks looting trees
as very merry greed knows no bounds...
