RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: UKRAINE
The Crimes of Izium
It shocks my senses
A quiver up my spine
Yet it comes as no surprise
The inhumane inhuman crimes
The bombing of civilians
Mass burial sites
Torture and deprivation
No goodbyes or final rites
It comes as no surprise
Invaders and would-be occupiers
Disregard all human dignity
Moral codes and common decency
Place yourselves in Ukrainian shoes
Your victims are within
Your friends and loved ones
Your family and your kin
The crimes of Izium cry out in outrage
Cry out loud for blood vengeance
Yet let there be compassion
Even for the depraved
Let there be mercy for the merciless
Let there be sympathy
For those who change their evil ways
