the empty place

The city is a barren, empty place. People come here only to benefit from unnatural long life. They need no knowledge to come here only money. The creatures of the wilds petition against it: they detest its ugly ways. Barrenness is a sure route to death. To oppose nature is to mock it. She will not stand for scorning laughter. Man is to blame, with his failings and foolish ways. He will not venture forth and claim beautiful surrender. Your heart oh man will not relent, will never surrender to moderation, will not give in to compromise. Awaken oh man. Rise up and reclaim your dignity.
