THE VISION OF THE MARTYR FRED · AS EXPURGATED FOR THE
CENTRALIANS
Harriers know the right-sounding words
Chapter 16
Can you recognize the box?
2Not if you’re a Harrier,
3Raised by Harriers,
4In the land of the Harriers.
5How can anyone anywhere recognize the absence of what has been withheld since birth?
6The walls of your box are made from the gifts no one ever gave you,
7And the glories of the universe that no one ever showed you.
8What is more,
9Without such gifts and glories,
10You are marooned,
11Forever,
12In a universe of Harriers.
