Revolutionary Ructions

A liberation movement

Unpacked

The pack of cards

Heavily stacked

A nation

Picking up the pieces

Over 300 years of history

Linked like chainmail

Poverty

Feeds systems frail

Inequality

Leaves us wailing

A liberation movement

In power

Alliances fragile

Mind the growing gap

Erstwhile

Progress

In globalisation trapped

Isolation

A market commodity

Populations transitory

Development

Challenges environmental integrity

A liberated nation

Following

The corrupt

An eternal enemy

Good intentions

Pay for leverage

Solidarity

Lost in perceived reality

Each truth dispersed

Society suffers flailing insanity

Chaos threatens

Hard-won victories
