4 June 1989
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiananmen_Square_protests_of_1989
Its twenty years since Tiananmen Square
Twenty years since i stood by the Clydeside
in silent protest with democrats and shame-faced Stalinists
Twenty years since angry right-wing Chinese students
rapidly moving leftwards watched protestors with clenched fists
sing the Internationale at confused, fearful, murderous soldiers
Twenty years since slaughtering old men chose to treat
their people like cattle fearing worker solidarity
and the inevitable Fourth revolution which, of course, they only delayed.
