![]() This thoroughly meaningless dirge as a supposed national anthem that just won’t go away!A Poem by COLLYMORE![]() Self-explanatory.![]()
By Stanley Collymore
How can anybody realistically feel a natural empathy with far less so, a supposedly genuinely rock solid and truly patriotic solidarity with the country, which they were born in, and are still essentially living in; when this National Anthem which they’ve routinely, and literally distinctly quite repetitively from the moment they were actually bairns having it constantly and generally quite assiduously, rammed down their throats; keep on constantly hearing at each major occasion and manifestly, are themselves actually unthinkingly, expected to quite excitedly participate in but firmly though emphatically simply doesn't make even the slightest mention at all of any people, who're obviously like them, nor for that matter any reference at all of their clear and very natural aspirations as a proud nation of people. or queerly the country itself. A supposed National Anthem which is effectively a dirge basically exhorting the serfs and citizens of Britain to actually rather enthusiastically and discernibly also equally emphatically eulogize an hereditary simply unelected monarch and literally, that person’s own direct family members and no one else, as if the actual entirety of the UK's very diverse, and wide spread population doesn’t basically matter one bit and the sole individuals who actually do are those privileged ones that have forged this naturally effective, dung heap and essentially on which they self-entitled, and rather predictably overjoyed, smugly and wealthily sit. (C) Stanley V. Collymore 12 May 2023. Author's Remarks: Nothing like being an enthusiastically delighted, fawning and food bank recipient in 21st Century Britain; while those you sycophantically brownnose to flaunt their wealth at you - which of course you played some part in creating as you do maintain them in the style to which they've become used to through your taxes - yet they don't even have the common decency to ensure the country has a proper National Anthem which reflects something about itself and the people who live here, as most adult nations globally do with their own grown up populations. But seeing how stupid you are, why not have in addition to your genuflecting to them, likewise have a dirge, for that's what it actually is, that emphatically mentions only them. © 2023 COLLYMOREAuthor's Note
