The Ways of the World...History Now Doth Tell

The Brits ..well Once They Were

brits.....

The Welsh their voices raised in song
Tried hard to keep Englanders at bay
But Edward slaughtered lots of them
Build castles along border

The Scots across the border came
All bluster bravado and brawn
Annihilating all who got in their way
Just as some do today
With their foolishness

Angles and Saxons tried so hard
To rid their land of Roman rule
Decimation then began
It still goes on in different ways

And....

conquerors..ha ha..

In India a caste of men
Worked hard to make all as one
But masters of different beliefs
Set up variations
Led they did to strife still going on

The USA in need of glory and aplomb
Gave Hollywood to all the world
Insiduous changes then took place
Food language grammar a downward turn

Japan a country of warring clans
The mighty sword a way to die
Hari kari and all that jazz
Decided to conquer lands around
Did not succeed

Scum and Suchlike Stuff

scum...pariahs indeed

So where does all this lead
I too wonder how and why
Since time began
Oneupmanship has been the way
Scum that rises to the top
Good stuff left far below

It can be seen most everywhere
Some flatter with ignominious words
Sugary sweet and fatuous
Think they do this the way 

Others criticize and cleverly
Place words upon a string
Then draw the rope so very tight
Strangling those who would fight
Against injustices galore
