Realists of the world, be forewarned.
The Dreamer approaches
With a vengeful purpose.
The simple dreams which
He sent forth have all
Been shattered by reality.
He comes to avenge the dreams
Which were forced to succumb
To the coldness of truth.
Those pleasant dreams which
Gave men new hope and joy
And reason to strive,
Have all been slain needlessly.
Why must any man be forced
To face the cold harshness of reality,
When a simple dream may extend his goals?
Now the Realists must be prepared
To face the coming conflict between
Reality and the world of dreams,
And in the end, the Dreamer
Shall force all realists into submission
With the strongest force in the land,
The reality of their own nightmares!
