Its Myanmar
How you identify,
Will always override,
All rational thinking,
Causing a divide.
Read between the lines
As the countries multiply.
Clever with their words
So they call it “colonize”.
Want to know a true coward?
Watch how he handles power.
Aimed to devour.
Leaving the people sour.
And bitter.
If only they had twitter.
Exposing the foes.
These greedy transmitters.
I went there.
And I think they went way too far.
Took it,
and left them with a permanent scar.
Have to claim it back to remember who you are.
Burma is not their name. No.
It's Myanmar.
