Analysis of Beginning of Change



When the noises sing true
about the coming end.
The rising hopeful
grow where Chaos begins.

From shackled by the forger
to guiltless revenge.
Thrown stones kill order
of rich eating land.

Caustic praise of old fallacy
fade before ideas light.
Heartstrings strum radically
to the coming of night.

The rats racing against
a back spinning wheel.
Consuming culture
eaten by noble zeal.

The oppressed applying
pressure to the few.
The greedy will beg for
change on the streets of truth.
