The dream of the white man ever goes out
To the fight that can never be won,
And ever he plans to do the things
That they say can never be done.
It’s seldom he values the things that are,
What he craves he never may gain,
But ever he tries, till the day he dies
And then feels he has lived in vain.
THE NEW MASTER
As one who lays aside a task, where one has ruled
alone,
I lay aside the crown of hell, and give to you my
throne;
As one who feels his race is run, whose day is of
the past,
I recognize your genius, and abdicate at last.
I go and leave you master, and I feel it’s just
as well,
For Hades lacks its master, until you rule in hell.
The world wags on and changes, old methods now seem
weak,
And the changes of a thousand years, of these I fain
would speak.
I’ve raised and sponsored many names, that darken
history’s page,
I’ve made them rulers of the world in many a
by-gone age.
They all have shown a human turn, from Nero down to
you,
But now my life-long dream of a super fiend at last
seems coming true.
I’ve watched you since the faintest spark blazed
in your mother’s womb,
I’ve watched your hypocritic grief, beside your
father’s tomb;
I know the tainted blood that flows thru your each
and every vein
That shows up in your withered arm, and feeds your
fevered brain.
I saw it in your grandsire, where first it cropped
out plain
When German gold was squandered to slay the honest
Dane.
I fed you dreams of empire, and dreams of lust and
greed
And the age old lust of conquest that taints all of
your breed.
The strain that showed in Nero, cropped out alike
in you,
You killed your gentle mother, but not as Nero slew.
I gave you hate of Albion, for all the world will
tell
That could I kill that Anglo strain, I’d use
the earth for hell.
I loathe the Anglo-Saxon race, I hate their English
speech,
For where the Union Jack waves high, the Cross will
ever reach.
Their ignorant millions till the soil, for they protect
their own,
I hate it for I’ve never had this ensign for
mine own.
I taught you how to use God’s church, I built
the path you trod,
I filled your mouth until you claimed, a pardnership
with God.
I told you tales to tell to men, I coached you every
hour
Until an egomaniac ran wild, mad with a lust for power.
I made an army for you then, the peer of all war lords,
I smiled the night you went away to visit Norway fiords.
I knew your Bagdad railway schemes, I knew the Austrian
claims,
I knew that German gold would guide the mad assassin’s
aims.
I knew the schemes that you had planned, the one that
nothing curbs,
I envied your diplomacy that blamed it on the Serbs.
My brain ne’er hatched a finer scheme, your
armies marking time
And then the rape of Belgium, your premier man-sized
crime.
