MY WRITING IS QUESTIONABLE, OKAY???

The Coming

Where did our people rise?
From Talma, land of rice and meat,
The Naengites at our feet,
Then we were forced to greet and serve

Then some of us had nerve,
To disobey and swerve,
And we did not deserve this rule

So we migrated west,
To this new land, the best!
Or so the Clooa pests, they said

We overthrew the wrong,
And then we made more song, it seems,
And if we weren't a team,
We couldn't make this dream come true

Where did our people rise?
From Talma, land of rice and meat,
The Naengites at our feet,
Then we were forced to greet and serve
