These Lands, Conquered

He came, he saw he conquered

He hoisted his flag on that land and went back home

Leaving his footprints behind.

Even as the conquerors' flag fluttered in the breeze

The landscape changed from green to brown

Many birds and animals became extinct

The people went through a metamorphosis

The healthy became affected, the self sustained became dependent

And the prosperous became penurious.

The land he came, saw and conquered degenerated

While he and his generations

With the income, he leeched, happily prospered
