Democracy dashed upon the rocks
Lighthouse guide has fallen dark
Mayday, mayday calls the flock
Two by two like Noah’s ark
Captain’s crew has blindly haled
Commands barked sure to kill
Near time win will long time fail
When keel doth rupture on sill
By headwinds sail to Davy’s doom
Tsunami comes rushing in
Neither hold nor deck is safety’s room
They’ll pay for ignorance sin
Histories ne’re kind to pirate thieves
Nor saber tongued silvery fools
While innocent victims losses grieved
Their anger grows til it’s cruel
Lashing out victims surely will march
The port be their final stand
Skyward they gaze backs and necks upwards arched
Victory’s sweet and it’s grand
Criminal fools feel they’re immune
Til their pokes raise the ire and rage
Common man pushed to the brink of his doom
Turns upon captor and cage
Freedom they hail til finally set free
WIth blood on their calloused hands
Keepers grotesque lay twisted at feet
The weaker take control of the land
Postponing their fate is futile at best
They’d be better to meld with the times
Thinking this day they’ll withhold from the rest
Soon they will answer for crimes
