The Castle Walls

On the hill, we built the fortification
To discourage the invading forces
From thinking they can take this great nation.
They may bring their catapults and horses
To show off their might at our castle walls,
But we are ready for their advances.
They expect our sovereignty to fall
Because of their military dance,
But we will not be intimidated
By their shiny medals and puffy hats.
We will not be so easily bated
For they are nothing more than spoiled brats.
There is a reason we built it so high,
Just so out heritage will never die.

The Fence

What is this fence between me and my fun?
What makes the players on the other side
Think that they reside on another sun
Where my kind won’t be allowed to abide?
Seeing them over there, getting their pets
Makes me ask why there are none over here.
This skinny line divides where the sun sets,
But the difference it creates is clear.
That is the land of opportunity
That likes to hold back from the land of none.
They believe in their superiority
Belongs to the history of their gun.
So I will just stand here and stare across
At the land of plenty which is my loss.
