Mysterious Rakes


Able bodies broken 

Songs of struggle and bonds

Release our hearts to humanity

Join in the teaming throngs

Together in commons

Multitudes in revolt

against unjust systems

Bring our dreams home

Swept aside our past

Fallen off sides and back

A new pinnacle, a beacon

The blind judge is unmasked
