Disembodied, the disenfranchised File away their chains online Forging new links, stronger, wider Outlaws in the flesh combine. Souls connect with souls, and reason, Stretching out in space and time, Synaptic impulse, becomes magnetic, Electric purpose forms a line. Stronger now the souls, united, Challenge status so, in time, A people once imprisoned, frightened, Walk free of stigma, absolved of crime.
