RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: UKRAINE
Saboteur
The beast of the great white north
Opens a new front in the war on democracy
Sabotaging gas lines in the Black Sea
Supplying Europe with energy
Meantime in the Czech Republic
Putin finances the opposition party
Sponsors protests in the streets
In Italy he throws a party for Mussolini
Scoring a victory for fascists and
Putin sympathizers everywhere
Though they pretend to oppose
The war in Ukraine (for now)
He believes he can defeat democracy
With corruption and propaganda
The weakest among us que up
To take his blood-for-oil money
To utilize his machine
Hold the line in Bohemia
Remember your history
The Velvet Revolution
Remember Dubcek and Havel
Russian tanks on the streets of Prague
Remember the occupation
A broken nation in defeat
Hold the line in Milan
Remember your history
How you lost your righteous way
How you followed Mussolini
How it ended in disgrace
Hold the line in eastern Ukraine
Remember occupied France
The shame of those who submitted
The honor of those who made a stance
The great aggressor is losing ground
His debt is mounting every day
His cause is evil and corrupt
And for his crimes he will pay
