AoTEARoa aka New Zealand

Spine chilling velocity Willing feverish ferocity Pollution spilling atrocity Pushes our buttons Top billing forging Fiendish drilling pomposity Gluttons gorging in the isles of muttons Coining the term “purloining” Plunder even here down under Cast asunder..can hear the thunder In the proud land of The long white cloud Scold from the fold to heal But won’t listen..do a deal Gaudy gems appeal..glisten History sold for pieces of gold Cower to phoney crony power Dour Parasites roll the dice Show pony baloney hour Off their heads...now divining Mining our whining sea beds.. Palaver of scour..devour and sour Splice our shining slice of paradise Vice rather than stories of glories told Voraciously gobbling veracity Audaciously hobbling precocity Generosity wobbling even in the home Of lengthy Cumulus Curiosity… Not being funny In this Land of Milk & Honey Won’t kowtow to the cash cow Getting out of hand Because the answer forever Whatever will never ever Be just money!
