HOW I WISH THE ROMANS HAD NEVER LANDED HEAR
If only the Romans hand never heard of the island of BritanniaIf Julius Caesar had never attempted to land hear
If only the emperor Claudius , had not a political need to add this
island to the damed Roman empire
If only he did not need cerement his power at home in Rome
If only Queen Boudicca had not listened to the prating , foolish men
If only she had told them to '' piss off you stupid men''
''I SAY WHAT GOES''!
''NOT YOU!!'' '' I AM THE QUEEN OF THE ICENI''
If only she'd caryatid on with hit and run , ambush, then not lost
forty thousand children , woman and men , put to
the swarded
If only she had not agreed with the idiot men to face the Romans
army in open combat
If only , then these Isle's would just have been the bread basket
of Europe
As the wheat prostitution in the iron age was at the levels of the 1950's
If only the Romans left the idea of empire in the mind's of future Kings
Queens and politician's
The the history of the world of the last two thousand years would
have been so , so different, many of the wars and countless horrors
would have never been
wars hear , in what is now called the United Kingdom
wars fault on your land , your country's
If only the Romans never came hear.
