From wood it’s made,
From string, it’s made,

A score without a game.
A staff not for the lame.
With seven letters tamed.
With five letters named.

A nation isn't conquered by armies anymore. It's done slowly, from the inside, by those who write the laws and control the culture. They don't need to break down the gates when they're already in charge of the institutions. The surrender is silent.
