Rise


The labours of the intelligent giants carry a weighty simian envy
Fight not the tide of advance alone but also a belligerent brotherhood
It is the order of the world; even if it is contrary to the human condition
That pearls of wisdom garnered from grains of sand are dearly bought
For each gem that rises up into the oceanic light of day to lift beliefs
Twenty of us fell as pieces of coal to the bottom of the sea in sacrifice
