A seedlingHow it all beganSown in the soil of her ancestorsWith a new topsoil of freedomGerminated by the oppressorsAn angel born from the sins of a demonAbsorbing all the knowledge around

Appearance makes all the difference.
What are we without the proper appearance?
Nothing some say.
Like a hollow shell without value.
