United Nationality
Britain with an accent
French with a cigarette
China with a great wall,
Over the seas I lost
To a nation,
Kindled my flag so it would burn ,
Like a light that has never been put out,
I raised the stakes and created a pound;
At the cost of an ounce,
Beckoning landmarks, of the things we lost
To remeberence
