Your-O-Peon

Too many borders for joyful fates;  
yet still were some who thought they might unite  
under a banner as true as midnight  
with field stars like the United States  
to likewise symbolize potential there  
or an emulation of welkin grace  
which all visionary humans can trace  
with optimism and hope in the air.  
 
But there are those who will not bridge the gaps  
and indeed do their best to undermine  
anything and everything benign  
just to leave the peasants with table scraps,  
because they can't distinguish genotypes  
from millennia...of stereotypes.
