RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: WORLD DEMOCRACY
Enemies of Democracy
Putin is a master propagandist
A pretender to democracy
His elections are a farce
He assaults the free press
He destroys political opposition
He attacks his democratic neighbors
For daring to choose their own leaders
Xi is a master of propaganda
Another pretender to democracy
Isn’t it strange how ruthless dictators
Find it necessary to pretend?
There is no genuine journalism
No institutions of free speech
No challenge to government dictates
No resistance to oppression
Erdogan is a wolf in sheep’s clothing
He exploits the religious right
He jails journalists and opposition
He punishes freedom of thought
He rules with the fist of fear
He maintains military control
Bolsonaro is a wannabe
He tried to negate a lawful election
He tried to silence the opposition
He tried to punish dissent
He failed
Netanyahu is a wannabe
He despises independent speech
He tried to gut the judiciary
He would destroy the free press
If he had half a chance
He would establish military rule
Trump is a threat to democracy
He admires only strongmen
He disrespects the rule of law
He wishes to use the justice department
To punish and silence his enemies
Given a chance he would end
Democracy in America and
Appoint an American King
