Nova Pax Romana Poem by Phan Thanh gian

Nova Pax Romana



We are the new Romans
The Greeks inspired our great republic.
Our senators wear spartan white,
Their stains must be bleached.
Hot bath washes away our filth.

Absolute peace shall reign the Empire
Hail Cesar! Absolute force if needed
Democracy is only for the weak.
Barbarians need to be colonized
Ol 'em crude and uncivilized!

Brave Roman Legions march on!
Go forth to enlighten those subhuman races.
For the glory of Rome, we provide bread and circus.
Once their bellies full they frolic,
Our august Emperor will think for their lot.
