RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: GLOBAL DEMOCRACY
Ukrainian Independence
Three decades ago and a year
Sing a song, give a cheer
Ukraine became a new nation
The Soviet collapse was their salvation
After seventy years of subjugation
Ukraine declared itself a nation
As the Soviet empire crumbled
Like a tower made of sand
A cry of freedom throughout the land
The empire is dead!
Say goodnight and go to bed
Three decades and a year today
Ukraine became a free nation
But the darkness always loomed
The prospect of an invasion
Now Ukraine must fight again
Until the world alas stands strong
Against oppressors and invaders
Against a clear and evil wrong
