The Revolution Will Be Live-Tweeted

While wiling away the lonesome hours

The fire dies away

The subtle form and plays for power

It makes you hang your head

And wonder at this hate filled world

A golden prince in a handsome tower

Keeping girls at bay

What’s the difference between defend and cower?

When words can wound like weapons

Children learn to wield them well

It’s amazing that women haven’t soured

Of lives lived certain ways

There must be a collective willpower

The revolution comes ahead of schedule

It has waited long enough

The time has come to overpower

The world as now it lays

We must o’erturn the bower

Precious things can be destroyed

Only time should be that precious

Once the world has been scoured

We will have our say

No longer will hate devour

And all the world will be empowered
