In This English Literature Of Ours

Here we are at the end of today,
Reeling from the horrors of post-colonial ways,
The power and influence of the English was overthrown,
By the post colonial writers; how they did this we learnt,
In this English literature of ours,
They seemed to pine and whine,
For lost paradise of peacable kingdoms,
For distant lands to which they can never return,
Or to free their working man's paradise; how they did this we learnt,
In this English literature of ours,
We've been through a lot this semester,
Teacher's didn't teach, but between the exams they came to preach,
We learnt to fend for ourselves and all by ourselves; how did they did what they did we learnt,
In this English literature of ours.
