Do you feel it???? You are free!
   Do whatever you please, you only live once.
Did you see her??? Beauty personified
   Like the sunset over the Hudson River...cherish it.
Time expedites, we mourn.
   You belittle, I retort
     The double-edged sword.
Matthew Shepard, the AIDS virus
   Initiators, victims...who are you?
Repeating history's bitter vendettas.
   Born of negligence, born of stupid pride.
When your time comes, will YOU
   Be negligent, or proud
     The double-edged sword.
How can you love life, and beauty
   And be so...so willing to crush the alternative???
It isn't your perception, not your life!
   Judge, jury and catalyst of hypocrisy
     I hope you don't bleed easily.
