"In a euphoric world, there's always a line

A line of poetry written into each atom

There's love in the air,

Floating and glistening

So that everyone can see it

And so, when the jealous are ailed with boredom and hate

A dagger falls and rips through the world

And a crimson waterfall befalls the peace

And the wounded poet stumbles,

Succumbing to its creation

Succumbing to its magnum opus

Succumbing with a smile, knowing that they posited a tremor in history."
