"The other factor -the thirst for innovation- came out of the heritage of revolution and freedom."

Revolution...

In conclusion

A hemorrhage

Of heritage;

Truth and reason

Lack all treason

To build and grow

A country reaps to sow.


Take up the pieces of freedom

Splay them far and wide beneath 'em

People do what country says

Country regrets what the war slays,

Memories expanding

Demands reprimanding

A nation; united under the cause of innovation

Is like a valley in which thrives creation.



MUSINGS #8: I read the quote above from a history book. The sentence up top is not mine, disclaimer. I proceeded to write this poem (which is mine), from its inspiration.
