RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: GLOBAL POLITICS
The Day that Shook the World
We should have seen it coming
The writing was on the wall
The day that shook the world
May be the day that we fall
Europe stands on edge
Ukraine is on the line
NATO is forming contingencies
For a world that is realigned
Vladimir Putin wears a smile
That will last until tomorrow
The dictators are in ecstasy
The free world is in sorrow
A new age has begun
Filled with worry and despair
The autocrats are in power
And corporations do not care
About the warming of the planet
About protecting human rights
About the fall of a republic
We watch it vanish from our sight
