Take A Write At The Top Of The Stair
Step by step, slowly we climb
Upon the written word
Etched from the beginning of time
The walls papered with pages
Whether the Bard or Neanderthal
We're saved from stares thrown at us
Deep from the angry abyss
Choked upon its own ignorance
Savor the ink
For this, is who we are
Angela Garcia as NeonMosfet
