Breathless Balkans, blisters & bruises <br />Savaged lands strewn about through time <br />From Romans, Goths, Huns and Avars <br />To Byzantines, Turks, Slavs and Tatars <br />Either pre-war or postwar, nothings been solved <br />And occupation becomes a suffered tradition <br />Yet devoutly believing in the laws of history <br />The Balkan states pre-figured the post colonial agony <br /> <br />Allies or Soviet satellites. Iron guards overrun <br />No interlude of freedom for Kosovo <br />No interlude of freedom for Bosnia <br />As Serbian hopes progress, it conserves the dying young <br /> <br />We're losing grip- Reversal regime <br />A transition to incarnation, tracing back to 1983 <br />Dissolving progressive party features ideology <br />Soft on capitalism- a conformation zone <br />Under the Titoist puppets of the curtains shadows tone<br /><br />Mason Maestro<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/balkans-bruises/
