What will be our legacy? Emptiness, or something grand?

POSTERITY

When oceans rise and stars shall fall,

Will any remember freedom’s call?

Or will we be a sad memory,

A legacy – gone – not to be?

Which passed on into the night,

Letting evil encroach with its blight,

Posterity left without a chance,

Freedom drowned at the final dance,

When oceans rise and stars shall fall,

Will our heirs never hear the call?
