The poet, the pauper, and the King. In one person, you may find all three. David is the hero of this story. The story tells how he arrives on a bolt of lighting to be transformed from his old life to a life that is quite opposite the one he was living just moments ago a and the one he lived billions of years ago. If David cannot change the people of the World in time to bring about lasting Peace, then he will use the power given to him in death to bring about The Dead Calm of Peace.
