May Day
The labourers had a claim logical,
That some meanly labelled as farcical,
The anarchists were struggling for an 8-hour-day,
Not caring for a rise in pay.
Chicago was trembling the most already,
For the right, the people of all colours were hungry ,
No smoke curled up from the chimneys of the factories,
Rather the streets turned into human-seas.
Five rebels in 1887 smilingly sacrificed their precious breath,
Yet 1904 marked the workers’ victory, the most wanted wreath.
