The Bengal Famine of 1943
killed as many in a year
as the Soviet bear in the gulag -
so much for your useless tears.
The bones of coolies ain't worth it -
and those of abos likewise.
Build o'er the blood too, earth it,
house a mining giant and Perth it.
Churchill > Stalin
so they say, so they say,
Coventry >> Talinn
Obama <<<< Palin
unless you're gay,
so they say.
