The Sixth Star
The Chinese flag boasts five stars
the smaller ones represent the four classes of people
which cower in the shadow of the larger one(communism)
In our grandchildren's lifetime
a sixth star will be stitched into the crimson fabric
It will be the dimmest star, by far, in the communist constellation
representing the people of every other nation,
I pray that I'm gone before then.
