Poem to the "Party"
How many shadows must you cast
how much longer can your rule remain?
How many lives must you destroy
bearing no conscience nor a moment's shame?
You, who stifle freedom
trample culture with an iron heart
from ranting to rhetoric
propaganda to vicious lies
China, a country torn apart.
Hiding behind your walls
distorting the truth, distend
in your war against humanity
no haven or new horizon
and such brutality to defend.
How many souls must you poison
how much longer can the world be silent?
How many crimes must you wage
before we see the end to all your violence?
The Means to a "Party's" End
Your flag unfurled,
flying like tears
of red against the sky.
Your crimes unsheathed
behind these walls of fear
ever closer to falling
no matter how high.
Your shameless heart
coldest where legions
of shadows reside.
Your reign to a remnant
a fading memory and no more
worlds soon to awaken
finding calm from such bitter tides.
How many shadows must you cast
how much longer can your rule remain?
How many lives must you destroy
bearing no conscience nor a moment's shame?
You, who stifle freedom
trample culture with an iron heart
from ranting to rhetoric
propaganda to vicious lies
China, a country torn apart.
Hiding behind your walls
distorting the truth, distend
in your war against humanity
no haven or new horizon
and such brutality to defend.
How many souls must you poison
how much longer can the world be silent?
How many crimes must you wage
before we see the end to all your violence?
The Means to a "Party's" End
Your flag unfurled,
flying like tears
of red against the sky.
Your crimes unsheathed
behind these walls of fear
ever closer to falling
no matter how high.
Your shameless heart
coldest where legions
of shadows reside.
Your reign to a remnant
a fading memory and no more
worlds soon to awaken
finding calm from such bitter tides.
("Party" - The Chinese Communist Party)
