Who dare tame the river Or bleed the ocean blue Who dare conquer shiver Or claim what is true Who dare drink the waters And say it’s not for me Who dare my life they shutter And say it is not free Who dare partition the past And build on top a lie Who let this happen so fast? Why, ‘twas no one but I. Who dare claim arcana And say that I am wrong When they possess no mana Empty spells charged by throng Who dare rebuke the deceiver And deliver utterances of ‘god’ Who dare use word to deliver When lexicon, constant, amounting fraud Who let these conmen win And gouge me with their fear? Who dare proclaim I sin When their sins fill my ear Who dare claim the bed When sand upon they rest Their beach stained blood red With order as their quest Who dare lock this stone While, too, shackle every womb Who dare claim a throne When all thrones turn tomb Who dare scribe this ‘sage’ Upon this very page When written from a cage Locked by indignant rage
