Power Poem by Matt Kephart

ashes to ashes and dust to dust.
they are the enemy
and fight them we must.
only then will we see.

beneath the veil
that's pulled over your eyes
there lives a world
where we can't compromise

when we wake from
our most beautiful dreams
we shall realize that
nothing is as it seems

we hold the power
we choose our fate
they can not stop us
they can only wait

the darkness is parted
and once we can see
we shall rise up
and once again be free

the cages they built
to hold us within
can not withstand the fury
the power to strike out
and be free
free from this prison
