Freedom died last night,
at the age of three hundred, three.
He is survived by his children and his wife,
and some believe, his dreams.

He was found near a glass of gin,
and by codices piled to some height.
A lady friend happened upon him -
(at a quarter past midnight).

Though more details are yet to come,
The facts, as they are, imply,
when all is said and done,
Freedom died...by suicide.
