Serve Britannia (The Sonnet) | Making Britain Civilized
Let us build a new Britain,
A Britain with actual heart's beauty,
Where we shall right our wrongs,
Instead of boasting our atrocities.
Let us build a new Britain,
Where commoners are king and queen,
Where unlike our tribal ancestors,
Our habit is not occupation but caring.
Let us herald a new Britain,
Where there is no exit only inclusion,
Where no one bows to no one for honor,
And each lives with self-determination.
Serve Britannia! Britannia, serve as aid.
Britain never again shall make others slave.

Yankee Dongle (Pilgrim Sonnet) | Abhijit Naskar | Brit Actually: Nursery Rhymes of Reparations
Yankee dongle crossed the pond,
sailing on a ship called Mayflower.
He plucked and tucked a feather in cap,
and called himself the lone ranger.
Yankee dongle made many westerns,
to maintain the narrative in favor.
Propaganda is a key apparatus,
when you’re out to roam as killers.
Yankee dongle ran away from home,
he had trouble with his tyrant father.
So he sought out a land of his own,
where he was the new face of terror.
Yankee dongle is his father’s son,
same vision, but 100 times the cunning.
Thus, while his father is losing grip,
pilgrim spirit continues transgressing.
