Estate distaste:

Shining city on a hill
Thousand points of light
Toiling to fill the till
For future sunset bright

Banal blatant brutality
Indecent insolent impunity
Civilian culled casualty
Iota-less indemnity

Massing poor, tired and huddled
Receiving wretched refusal
Shoreline, borderline muddled
Impenetrable walled portal

Mixed up dreams for many
Messed up nightmares for rest
Hoping for golden epiphany
Others for lives without unrest

Good one, mate. You used the longer structure very effectively too.
