In a different world
in 1982
the empire of the British
was defended
by sinking the General Belgrano
in International waters
8,000 miles away from England
320 dead
Fast forward to 2026
a different world again
the brutality of the Americans
is demonstrated
by sinking the Iris Dena
in International waters
8,000 miles away from Washington
140 dead
Both sunk by nuclear submarines
a long way from their homes
on the orders of megalomanic white folk
with a lust for power
falling approval ratings
leaders of failing empires built on violence
finding relevance
in ordering the deaths of others
