Given, that everything said is already dead;
Given, that voices that continue ought to enthuse;
Given, that masturbation is a fruitless pleasure;
Given, that bella donna is the mansons crime;
Given, that shivering is a listless intention;
Given, that apathy is the disastrous lie;
Given, that violence is the only true line;
Given, that extremism is the most honoured virtue;
Given, that time is above all something that cannot be wasted.
