War in Ukraine

 RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: GLOBAL POLITICS


War in Ukraine

 

Is Ukraine an independent nation?

An escalation in weapons and guns

Breakdown in diplomatic relations

The war in Ukraine has begun

 

Amassed on the Ukrainian border

Soldiers missiles and tanks

Disrupting international order

Tension crawls up the ranks

 

The Russian beast has awakened

In a world beset with pandemic

A cold war no longer forsaken

Our problems become systemic

 

We have no patience for war

Between the world’s greatest powers

For a waste of precious resources

You could not pick a finer hour

 

Let there be no more wars

Not today and not tomorrow

Let us answer a soldier’s prayers

Stop the wars, ease the sorrow
