Through the chilling precision of each note’s placement on the page‚ Williams conveys a message without words‚ and communicates the significance of lost innocence through music. In the first line of the piece‚

Anger‚ anarchy‚ and revelry spread like a plague and in the midst

    William Penn Adair Rogers did nothing a man is normally famous for‚ he wasn’t soldier‚ statesman‚ or a industrialist‚ a scientist‚ athlete‚ or even a famous bandit.
