[@JosephVonWeimar]

The first part by its rhythm predicts further economic growth. Yes, there is a certain simplicity to it that seems to show the poverty of the locals, but it is still optimistic, because "they know that beyond the borders of Guangdong there is poverty and they are lucky." But the second part is as if it had collected all the horror - the Yasuda crisis, the oil crisis, Tokyo's silence, the uprising, and then the "termination of the failed experiment" and on top of all the state control panels, economic indicators - Japanese characters and interference on all the screens. Japan's dissatisfaction reached one hundred percent.

@@amerashi1111That's not how slant rhymes work. Assuming you're putting the rhyme in the second line of each verse, you can't slight "heart" to rhyme with "are" no matter how hard you try, because heart is hɑːrt. It'd need to be hɑr:t, with is literally unpronounceable. I'm entirely unsure how you think "us" is pronounced, since it'd have to be said "ooes" to remotely slant with "true". I'm further genuinely unsure where you'd be slanting in the first stanza. Final stanza is the only one that works.
