You have until Friday September 25th, 11:59 PM GMT to fill one /lit/-sized textbox (3,000 characters) with writing inspired by this piece of public-domain art.
Poetry, prose, greentext, etc. are all fair play as long as your submission—and that’s “your submission” (no plagiarism; no AI)—fits inside a single textbox posted in this thread.
After the deadline has passed, I shall choose the best 3.
An open vote will take place as well, so that everyone can have a say on placements.

I see him. There he is, sitting. The architect guilty of butchering an entire American civilization, indeed, the only American civilization worthy of the name in the last unhappy decades of this nation, now massacred and swept away. Man must convince himself his crimes are just! That they are a necessary evil! Well! I must act now to fire with righteous fury a voluntary benevolence. It doesn't spawn from me. It lurches forward from a collective will, beseeched by unavenged American blood. My land of cavaliers and cotton fields and knights and ladies fair and master and slave has been slaughtered, and the guilt-laden criminal sits here. And to think his name is Abraham! Rather than a father of many nations, you, vile creature, are the murderer of the noblest nation that has graced this unhappy and fallen world. A civilization gone like a hushed match-fire. Nothing can be done now. There is no redemption, there is no restoration, there is no restitution of our old order and the only thing that remains is the undying fire agonizing inside my recusant heart that refuses to be swept away like dust. I rather be ashes than your slave. Die!

Respectfully, stop posting such uninspiring, dull art and instead post something more interesting.
