Nationhood

A Kingdom of Conscience

My ideals are my own

I shall never walk with the masses or cheer with the crowd nor will the “enlightened” mobs shout me down and rule over me with fear

If permanent armed police are called for by the masses i will stand up and say i do not agree,

If the mob calls for capital punishment be re-instated i will say no i do not agree,

If these inquiries turn into fear mongering media headlines and modern witch hunts on our citizens i will say no, this is not our justice.

May we not lose our liberty to fear and our kindness to grief

May we look upon our democracy with all its failings in compassion and understanding,

May we not loose sight of our responsibility to ensure free ideals are not censored but addressed ‘we say this is not our society that this is not our New Zealand but we are far from “enlightened” even thou we try… A journey all Nations must take

This little world of mine…

What a miraculous world where our future is never defined,

What a shining bright dream to which we turned our eyes blind.

A future taken for granted to be willed into being, no chaos could we have imagined what we’d be seeing…

Is this what our ancestors faced during the Waring times? fear and despair coiling around them, where did they find the courage to stand…

And in the growing ashes the flaws of history became apparent we question our ways and champion what is fair,

But cracks continue to spread as the facade begins to tear

No glorious state no dignified society, to the pits we all crawl into the abyss we all begin to fall

Together they stood when faced with adversary, yet WE stand divided, isolated and alone, our hearts are connected in our solitude and desire,

Destiny is upon us if only together we could aspire

A tribute to the world that was to be,

a promise to the world

that you’ll all share with me.
