The British Dream

All the round world over, people
dream the American dream,
because they know that America –
carved from the dead, beaten heart

of British parliamentary monarchy,

Allows everybody their best shot. We’re
not stuck in slots of patronage and ancient
inheritance of booty looted from common
people, all the round world over.
