"when you look into the face of a fool gone too far
don't let the senselessness clouding the bleeding in your heart
and when he speaks of virtue to mask his cruelty
gather in the twilight where the spirit still is free
strike up the band and make a little noise for your fellowman."
[from "Fellowman Blues" by Aaron Berg, available at

"...did you ever dream about some place beyond
where the lines of color are no longer drawn
and the weak are not enslaved by the strong
in the darkness that is coming on
why some many have no spoken in the rising of the tide
as the nightmares of the waking eclipse the visions of the mind
why the idles are not broken though the brass tongues all i lied
as the sacrifice that is offered wipes a teardrop from its eye
why the mountains are not quaking under the absurdity of the strain
of the masses of forsaken left to the wilderness and the rain
why the spirit of the fallen cannot see his shadow and reflect
upon the higher movement calling him to lay down his fooolish threat
i am standing in the bright light with both feet on the ground
reaching towards a great height as there words resound
i will not be a pawn in the darkness that is coming on."
[from "The Darkness Coming On" by Aaron Berg]
