---

Consent to feed, conquest in death, complicit sick,

Remain in doubt.

Plow through the flesh, pity the sword, planning ahead,

Remain in doubt.

Never pious.

We must never give empire the benefit of the doubt.

Stripped, tar feathered, and mired,

Not correctly devout.

No appeal to who is higher.

Forgotten and cast out.

We can't give any empire the benefit of the doubt.
