(A nicely illustrated version is available
in special kiosks in the region
example shown in the picture below)
In a town drawn in black and white,
every word was law, every wrong made right.
If it wasn’t printed, it did not exist.
Truth was whatever he chose to twist.
He owned the ink.
He owned the page.
He caged the world in a paper cage,
smiling streets in crooked line,
every soul by his design.
He grew bored of his perfect game,
so he called a thing with no true name,
asked for power, asked for more,
asked to own the world he tore.
The Devil smiled. No deal was made.
It simply opened what he’d caged.
From below, where silence slept,
something stirred the town had kept.
Great arms of ink dragged through the street,
painting truth where lies would meet.
You can’t print what won’t obey.
Ink remembers anyway.

To say it was "controlled chaos" is being generous,
but everybody seemed to be having a good time
and were donating either to keep the miscreants
locked up or to let them go.
All donations went to Relay for Life, so it was a win for all concerned.
