RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: WORLD DEMOCRACY
The Unseen Hand
The unseen hand of intimidation
Belongs to the brute of the Kremlin
His presence felt in most every nation
Like a force of voting gremlins
They promote stories with clever lies
The truth is altered and deformed
They provide their guilty alibies
They invade like a closing storm
From Austria to the Slavic states
From Wisconsin to the Hague
The unseen hand has found its place
Like the scourge of a Russian plague
Democracy is on the run
Most everywhere we turn
We cannot rest until it’s done
Let the flames of freedom burn
Do not give in, do not despair
The alarm has been sounded
We are rallying the free and fair
On the principles that were founded
In ancient Greece and modern Rome
The bricks of our foundation
Democracy has found a home
In the best of civilized nations
