they stormed the Bastille
  monument of unspeakable horrors
torture and death
for the gunpowder
 to fight the Royal army
A loaf of bread cost a month's wages
'He with the empty stomach complains loudest'
 they marched to Versailles,
the fishwives
these women worked hard every day
 and they were out for blood
 pitchforks muskets
and longknives
  Louis was moved to Paris and
becames it's prisoner
