Diaoyutai: Our Final Words!

Bob Choi

14 Sept 2010

A group of islands off the East China Sea,

gazetted five hundred years ago in the Ming Dynasty;

home to mountain goats and not even a soul,

Chinese sovereignty is indisputable!

With black gold discovered under the continental shelf,

energy sources to which Japan wishes to help itself;

its shameless manipulation of historical facts,

buttressed by the US in a most unfriendly act.

The Nanjing Massacre, use of weapons biological

and other war crimes unmentionable¡K

Atrocities Japan committed without a single apology.

Our government indeed showed great magnanimity!

All things rise and fall in vicissitudes.

Economic power translates into political latitude.

China is once again a nation of considerable might.

We must now reaffirm our territorial rights!

National pride and honor are much at stake.

We must defend our land for heaven¡¦s sake.

So, hear these, Japan, our final words:

Diaoyutai belongs to us¡K

So PLEASE, keep out and shut the hell up!
