May Fourth

May 4th On this day the war Had finally come to our door The decision-making was poor Because the night before had been fiery But it was an overreaction to call out the national corps This rashness would lead to the death of four That would rock a nation and a movement to its core And only increase a nation’s hatred for the man behind the oaken door Because these students were not do anything more Than exercising the right that had been given almost two centuries before May 4th will be forever know as the day bullets were fired in America’s war
