The Lead
Softly he rebels against all of this;
Tugs his face away from the glowing grip;
Subtly turns away from pacifist,
Into activist;
Hacking bits off nearby wrists;
What clever twist,
The loyalist,
double double thinking, quadruple it;
Come to grips
With what he missed;
Pulling all the strings he laid while in the mist.
