Henry Lawson - One-Man-One-VoteHenry Lawson - One-Man-One-Vote
Work rating: Low


“ONE-MAN-ONE-VOTE!” You hear the people shouting.     The walls of Mammon tremble ere they fall. ONE-MAN-ONE-VOTE! Is this a time for doubting?     The poets have been prophets after all. ONE-MAN-ONE-VOTE! The cry is growing stronger!     ONE-MAN-ONE-VOTE! It echoes o’er the wave! ONE-MAN-ONE-VOTE! The Wealthy dead no longer     Shall rule us through their children from the grave! ONE-MAN-ONE-VOTE! The knell of Retrogression!     The greatest triumph of the tongue and pen! ONE-MAN-ONE-VOTE! The right of long possession     Is right no longer in the minds of men! ONE-MAN-ONE-VOTE! There’s lightning in the thunder!     ONE-MAN-ONE-VOTE! The reign of Greed is o’er! ONE-MAN-ONE-VOTE! The cursed Vote of Plunder     Shall rule the plundered slaves of earth no more. ONE-MAN-ONE-VOTE! We’re waking from our slumbers—     ONE-MAN-ONE-VOTE! To rule the fields we farmed! If thus we triumph with diminished numbers,     What will the triumph be when all are armed?
