If Poem by Ivan Brooks Sr

If only things could suddenly change
For the poor people from my country
How fed up we are of this old image
I wish this was as easy as my poetry.

If only the iron lady could walk away
So the locks to the banks could click
How weary we are of this power play
For the noisy majority have fallen sick.

If only this thing could turn around today
That our people could avoid this turmoil
Maybe a ship to take these thieves away
Never to step their bloody feet on our soil.

If only we could remain forever peaceful
For deaths and destruction we need not
Help my people Lord to remain prayerful
For their troubled souls have seen a lot.
