Land of pain

and complaints

teaching it's young

the miserable lessons of failure

and injustice that went cruelly mad.



An island

with rugged shores

that turn in

on it's own populace.



Rising.

genuflecting

and falling 'fatefully'

again

into the puddles

of it's own demise.



All that remains

is an emerald sadness

filled with living ghosts.
