RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: WORLD DEMOCRACY
Chile for Hope
In the election of Gabriel Boric
Over the right-wing strongman Kast
The Chilean people raised hope
That they have buried Pinochet at last
A rejection of the Bolsonaro clone
The promise of a new constitution
The people were bold and decisive
In tossing the old institutions
It is a bold new day in Chile
May it spread across the land
A message of democracy and freedom
Strike up a victorious band
The new president must now deliver
On the promises he put forth
Governing by forged consensus
Without the abuse of force
The world knows it will not be easy
But there’s no other way ahead
We’ve had enough of strongman oppressors
Let’s try liberation instead
