Crushing dissent!

And a helpless rage.

Unfettered powers roared again,
roared and took the voice of dissent.

Left behind a shallow body,
and a shivering body of dissent.

Shallow body never learned,
thus never yearned for dissent.

Shivering body filled with fear,
some times with the raging dissent.

Hitting keys with helpless rage,
being in the minority of dissent.
