Poetry – The British

The British

 

A people full of hybrid vigour

Who strode forth,

Deploying belligerence and intrigue

To conquer the world.

They used technology, tactics,

Diplomacy, corruption and force

To divide, enslave and subjugate.

Yet they were themselves

Oppressed by a set of robber barons.
