Subject: Change

Spread! As thy wings embrace thou in the solace of change—

In the breed of an animal and haste of a peregrine,

The futility to reject and accept 𝑎𝑙𝑙-𝑖𝑛-𝑎𝑙𝑙—

Come forth as thy servants! Come through with thy soul!

Here, we are nothing more than animals,

Wreak the lands and develop with continual—glorifying change.

Intoxicating mist in the sight of infants with minds of their own,

'Twas the upbringing of a legacy that throttles the weak—

Even so, I view how altered some may display,

It is not in my fortune to continue as I may—

On the pleasure and privilege thou brought forth,

I seek views of an animal that spends the dreadful sorrow of shame.

Spirits! As we abide by the fated luck of our mind—

Creating thy art through untold measures of will,

An animal lurking through its forests, thou shall see in thy slumber,

In resemblance to a peregrine—𝑠𝑝𝑖𝑟𝑖𝑡𝑠 𝑠𝑤𝑖𝑓𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑟𝑜𝑢𝑔ℎ 𝑠𝑢𝑐ℎ 𝑐ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒—

Everlasting as it may seem, thy tears flow in a stream,

With beams of faith enter your soul—Oh—spirit—𝑙𝑒𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑒 𝑏𝑒 𝑤ℎ𝑜𝑙𝑒.
