Ratified

Fled sovereign rule
For foreign shores
Trailed over seas
By kingdom wars
Blindside
Your succor
From tribes
Here before
Infect our blankets
'Civilize'
Clothe us in
Homicide

Treaties signed
Show veneers of white
Hubris lines
Every page with blight
Sufferers lands
Bought on full displacement
Parsed as kind
Strange view of independence

Our people wrecked
As you contrived
Signed with x
Ratified
Genocide
Ratified genocide
Ratified genocide

Our lands reduced
To white men's smallest mercy
Our hands induced
To relinquish in english marks
