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.
