A Spark left to kindle
A spark left to kindle will catch flame.
An animal treated wrong will not be tame.
A child beaten will begin to fight.
A man enslaved will demand his rights.
A voice unheard will begin to yell.
A man with a dark secret will begin to tell.
A man told no truths will begin to lie
And a world left to rot will die.
