Sanctions

 RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: GLOBAL POLITICS (UKRAINE)


Sanctions

 

Banished from the world of nations

Banished from the earth

All the money that is traced to him

That money has no worth

 

He might have a trillion rubles

Tucked away in hidden places

But what good is all that fortune

If he’s confined to darkened spaces?

 

Take his money and his treasure

Take it all in ample measure

Take his mettle and his spark

Steal his papers in the dark

 

Let him live without his wealth

Take his glory and his health

Make it suffer, let it hurt

Take his gold and give him dirt
