RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: GLOBAL POLITICS (UKRAINE)
Dance with the Devil
Once upon a twisted tale
We signed the Missouri Compromise
An agreement destined to fail
Neither virtuous nor wise
Now the free world is asked to agree
Which nations shall be enslaved
Which are empowered to be free
While we descend in virtue’s grave
It’s a dance with the devil
Down a twisted path
It may soothe for a while
But it will not last
We should not have condoned slavery then
We should not consent to enslavement now
Look back with wisdom remember when
A dance with the devil was once endowed
It’s a dance with the devil
Down a twisted path
It may soothe for a while
But it will not last
