land of no sympathy

in the country of no shame

you must never ask for help

in the country of no sympathy

you are always by yourself

it’s hard not to think of all the 

white men

who 

were told they were special

because their life was easy

(at least relatively)

and who were stomped upon nevertheless

by the same system that

used them to oppress

and now

flocking to a voice that told them they are indeed victims

they are willing to recreate the mess

(spurred ever onwards through the land of no sympathy)
