Containing the world

If atlas didn't shrug, what would have become of the world?
If Atlas had dropped the world, it would have been our own misfortune. We would have been punished for something we're deemed innocent of.

Punishment should fit the crime, but watch out for the bystanders.
For they are white lamb, waiting for their Shepard, be it saint or devil.
Each one of them Containing the World...
