Triumphant democracy

 Welcome Mr Star spangled
your soul walks through these walls and floors
A smokey cycle 
smile economy

Let me check up on Bessemer
He seems pretty uninterested
Must have been the beard
Not hetero-genius by far

You looked across the board
A geopolitical sniper
bag yourself a sweet monopoly
rivers of steel

Check up on Frick
Pinkerton mother
welcome Andy
The past is such a shoddy bank

Grudges dolled out
by crooked human spirit
none of them can be straightened out
ingot ghosts accumulate

Yet the demand has slumped
The brick work stained carbon black
The brick contains the illiterate labourer
fending for his humble self

The brick clicks and cracks under pressure
forming a smile
an economic need
A new venture to dominate the world with

Dunfermline foreign to the touch and taste
even if it was just to upstage a few local lords and ladies
Get the coach on the high street
humble pie is delicious in someone elses mouth

To take the reigns of a meaningless carriage
and whisper it's horses
Line the land with rail
Then run to charity as an overfed toddler does to breast
