Time of Axis
Have you ever seen such an enigmatic crossroad?
Seemingly unrelated factors approaching with the moxy of bullet trains
The evolution of technology bursting like a ripe fruit and nearing speeds of free fall
Social conscience and consciousness unifying in circle of fluid communication
Outdated institutions applying a staunch death grip as a Gargoyle peering from a ruin decrepit
It becomes harder and harder for the executioner to keep the veil forced tightly upon visage
The truth searches to find the weakness of its container
The earth continues spinning
Containing within enough nuclear energy to suffice the ceremony of her own destruction
Peace and freedom from poverty and hunger are becoming ever more plausible
Though the Warmongers bite down as hard as ever
Sharp teeth to human bone
We will see if these factors dissolve in waters of compromise and hard work
Or if opposing momentum will be resolved
In the force of an explosion
