For Our (great) Country's Day.... by yfo: 9:35am On Oct 01, 2013 |
There was once a land filled with numerous tribes/ each had its norms and locations well-defined/ centuries rolled by and development was at a steady pace/ with no tribe infringing on another man's space/ change is the only constant thing/ and it came on the wings of the 'WHITE WING'/ a commercial venture of commodities/ turned into people being the 'products' in trading activities/ the productive youths taken to develop another man's land/ with no 'engine' in place the steady progress stalled on the home-land/ years of being milked for another finally came to an end/ but the scars and damage inflicted just too large to mend/ with the first wave of 'attack' barely over/ another form of assault descended on the land with hardly any cover/ with various means, on our home-front they decide to settle/ and alien practices the people were taught to revel/ bringing together different people on a whim/ then leaving them against great tides to swim/ 53 years on and we've had our ups and downs/ but as one we can collectively change d frowns upside-down/ though it may seem like we have no reason to shout 'hurray'/ there's no place like home so let's all celebrate OUR INDEPENDENCE DAY... |
