“The Show”

Ladies and Gentlemen

Boys and Girls

Greetings, Salutations and Welcome

To the most spectacular show in the world.

This evening, on this very night

Sit-back and prepare to be amazed.

For on this special occasion

You are about to witness, one of the wonders in the world.

So enjoy

But, I must warn you

For this magnificent creature has been around for many years.

But don’t be afraid

Oh no, don’t be afraid

For you might not have known such creature existed.

But I will tell you this… It has known about you.

It has noticed, the shoes on your feet.

It has seen, the people that you meet.

It has created, the hatred in your soul.

It has delivered, the lies and stories that you are told.

It has blinded you, with the glasses that help you see.

It has provided, the chains that will never let you free.

It has constricted our minds,

And has taken our time.

Time that has constructed our history

Until now… It’s a mystery.
