Woman is a powerful instrument.
Kingdoms have been built
and nations formed because of her.
Bards and Minstrels have written
a legion of Songs and Poems for her.
Masters have bent their tools
to the task of capturing her beauty.
The Song she sings is one of Peace and Love.
It calms the savage beasts
ike a breeze on a warm summer day.

However, Kingdoms have been destroyed
and nations conquered because of her.
When a Woman's song no longer glorifies
the bounteous Love around her,
peace is lost, hearts are broken,
and lives are laid to waste.

Her beauty becomes a mask
to disguise the Chaos and Turmoil,
blinding men's eyes, and binding their hearts
to a task they would never do on their own.
Hate and Anguish ravage all around
the Woman whose Song has been forgotten,
but Hope is never lost.

Woman is born knowing the Song of Peace and Love.
She needs only to listen to her sisters to remember.
Then, once again, she may sing in harmony,
restoring what she had once destroyed.

Thus is the power of Woman.
