Long ago
in the sweltering sauna
where we began
In a darkened room
secret plans
conspirators gather
plotting their treason
against the mother
who bore them
risking everything
for an ideal
never before tried
A document is produced
cutting tyranny's cord
Bells ring
Proclaiming
a new nation
on that steamy
July day
when the world was forever
turned upside down
