RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: WORLD DEMOCRACY
Old Joe Goes Overseas
Old Joe goes overseas
To affirm our bonds with allies
As Beijing is locking down
Hiding state sponsored lies
Meantime Moscow is feeling bold
Sending out a team of spies
Democracy is on the wane
Dictatorship is on the rise
It’s a war of basic values
It’s a battle of the mind
One side seeks human rights
The other is flying blind
Xi Jinping enslaves minorities
Acceptance is your fate
Oppressing all his people
Imposing an Orwellian state
You will suffer harsh oppression
If you dare to deviate
Mr. Putin is little better
Though he plays a better game
To his political opposition
Their fate is much the same
He flaunts his techno power
His hackers put ours to shame
Old Joe must drop the hammer
Holding Vlad himself to blame
America is on the move
We’re getting back on track
Flexing our economic muscle
Ready for the next attack
So watch out all you autocrats
The Free World has what you lack
Freedom and individual rights
Democracy is coming back
