Has been witnessed how the flags were unfurled all across the disadvantaged downtrodden world For the tales of history have been indelibly written unswervingly in reprobate by those that win And our justice system has been dispensed by those who have us wilfully convinced of what is right and what is wrong when the realityContinue reading “Of winners and losers: A poem”
