Milk and Hate

In the land of milk honey and hate
The Evangelicals sealed it fate

Demanding its citizens religiosity
Inherent of its edits misogyny

Women second class Taliban  
Treated as a form of contraband

The Oligarch fomented  dissent 
While the peasants paid their rent

The war machine marched along
Its armies played King Kong

It became the land of moral decay
A nation that had lost its way

There was no moral authority
They cheated and groped with impunity
